I wish I had a nickel …

… for every pundit who trashed Microsoft Windows Vista without actually trying it. Granted, it took me a while to install it, and the multitudes of bug fixes, and the support pack. But once that was all done on my Lenovo Thinkpad T-43 (Intel Pentium M 1.86 GHz) with 2 GB RAM, the OS was stable and it handled the transition of my applications from XP without any incidents to write home about.

I was a bit miffed that it, like the gopher in my front yard, seemed to expand to the real estate available (aka disk). And, that the eye candy made me a bit nauseous. But once I gave Vista a more “XP classic” configuration, I was more at home with it.

Now I have to punt on third down. The laptop is necessary for a software review that does not support Vista. Oh well. Next up: Windows 7.
