        because folks are convinced Vista is still broken, therefore Microsoft will bow to everyone's desire and publish a new version that they can charge everyone for again.... Sometimes the customer IS right in their eyes. :) all new version, more money, MS will be happy to sell a SP2 of Vista rather than giving it for free... it is what the public wants. :rolleyes:

                I hear there is a new "stripped down" interface, but it requires even higher graphics demands... think it will sell? ;P

                  Especially if it is totally mouse driven, leaving one hand free.

                    How about Windows "Crap"? It's about time they invested in some truth in advertising.
