Stephen Wildstrom who writes the Tech & You column in Business Week didn't
have much good to say about Vista.  It is a memory hog and is slow.  He
really complains about User Account Control.  The popup that asks you
about everything.  It is apparently as bad as the Apple commercials make
out.

I am currently using XP on a laptop.  I don't like it anywhere near as
well as eCS but some things are just so much easier under Windows.  XP
compared to eCS is kind of like a VW compared to a BMW.  It is cumbersome
but it does work and the programs seem snappy enough.
