My battle with the OSes

Vista ... It sucks! ... true. And surely I had to start my thread with the "vista sucks" phrase, cuz it deserves it. Vista is Microsoft's blunder .. I mean what wer they thinkin? wer they even serious?? The world's one of the most richest company comes out with a piece of crap and expects people to hail and like it... how stupid... whats more stupid is that there are people who 'hail and like it'... there are fans of vista too ... sheesshhh!!

Microsoft messed up their shares big-time with windows vista. This is what they did: They made the windows NT kernel sometime arnd 2000 A.D, it was good, so they put some overheads to it to make windows XP, which surely was a big hit. Since XP (which was made by putting a little overheads upon NT kernel) was a hit, they thought why not keep putting a lot of overheads over this kernel (..screw it up!), and get a new OS? .. WE can make easy money that way ... (stupid idiots) ... so they came out with 'VISTA', the supposedly revolutionizing OS that changed it all. They fooled the common man with its glassy effects, aero effects nd etc etc crap. So, people bought it, since it luked good. Its the early market gain that has helped microsoft gain that trust of the people. So now people started trusting Vista, many hav hailed it on the internet, just as I am de-hailing it. People dont know, many dont, nd they arent expected to. It aint their fault... well partly it is. But point is, look what microsoft did. They were desperate. They knew the limitations of vista, they knew how screwed up it is. But they didnt have the time. Apple had come out with OS X in 2002, which was a billion times better than XP, in front of it, XP was 'trash', a shame for microsoft. And also, we had beryl linux, ubuntu, and many others, which wer more efficient and better lookin than XP, so even the opensource community was growing. Microsoft was desperate. It needed something, else it would lose its so called 'monopoly' over the OS market. So out of desperation (not skill, or smartness, or intelligence) they came out with VISTA. They knew its limitations, so they started paying companies like HCL, HP, DELL, etc to sell laptops and desktops with vista compulsorily. I duno Y these companies signed it (they must hav been offered a great deal of money), but now they are pullin away. HP already is gettin ready for an OS of its own, it started promoting linux... well ... thats whats been happening.

For me, I can work well with XP, no problemo, but VISTA, I cant stand it. I have been messing around with OSes lately. One thing that many wouldnt hav tried is installing macintosh on an intel based system. Or in other words, I installed MAC OS X Leapord on my HP laptop. How? Ofcourse its cracked. Its called JaS Darwin MAC OS. Its available on torrents. Visit www.osx86project.org for details... awesome. Try it out.

Will put up more threads on MAC and linux nxt time ... until then, If u still are a fan of microsoft windowes, chk out their plans of a new OS, whose kernel they are changing (...applied brains this time!). Its called 'windows cloud'
