I wanted to shutdown my computer, but clicked hybernate instead. It didn't ask for confirmation and my laptop went into hybernation :|

It's not Vista's fault you don't know where to click.

The OS did what you commanded and it sucks because of it? How annoying would it be if it asked for confirmation for every single command?

Yeah, but commands like shutdown, exit, etc should have confirmation IMHO. How annoying would it be to exit without saving or accidentally click shut down.

Hibernate doesn't lose your unsaved data does it? You clicked a button and that command was executed, I fail to see how this is a bad thing.

So you would go into hibernate without saving your work??? If so then you deserve to lose all your stuff.
 
I hate the fact that you can't cascade the start menu(except for the crappy win95 start menu they put in.. LOL). Try working with the default start menu on a touchpad. Its horrible!

Na I don't think it does, I meant to save how annoying it would be to exit a program without saving OR to accidentally shut down when you didn't want to. It was an accidental click, M$ should know that things like this can happen.

I guess I'll investigate switching on to classic menu. I thought I had it but I may have the classic skin but with the Vista Menu interface. In any case, (Win 7 >>) XP >> Vista

This is pure FAIL on your part, sorry.

Everyone just hates on Vista now because it's cool. Find a better reason. -_-;

Aww damn, I was 'ust tryin' to be cool 🙁

But honestly, I can't see how Vista is any improvement over Xp. Windows 7 on the other hand..

The you must be computing with your eyes closed. You do know that W7 is just reworked Vista right??? It's ok though. Stay with your 8yr OS.
 
You think that's bad? Sometimes I click to shutdown or restart, and the machine refuses to do anything whatsoever.
