Vista box...hard to open?

It took me a very long time (longer than it should) to open the vista box...

anyone else have the same issues? i was trying to open it like a book...rather than just open it...like taking a book off the shelf is the best way i can explain how it actually opened.
 
to think that this thread will be on the internet from now until....forever....is simply amazing, god bless the internet

no i didn't buy retail, nor did i pay retail so no i didn't get screwed...

and wtf...you can't tell me that many many people on here have that itch to try the new and exciting hardware/software... or is everyone a hermit ? I use linux too - but support MS so I might as well learn it.

its a MS product, most people are smart enough to wait a year or 2 after release to get it so most of the bugs are cleared up.
