Ever notice how it's the guys with Devil avatars that attack me? SUP with that?

I can't speak for the others but I'm not attacking you. I'm really just curious how you came to some conclusions because some of them really don't make sense and are full of hyperbole.

Well the simple fact that you resorted to name calling pretty much somes up the fact that you are a troll. You can't even accept the first number as wrong (number of Vista installs which he based on WORLDWIDE INTERNET USERS [which btw, includes cell phone users with internet access]). Second, how many of those people actually installed Vista vs getting it already installed?

bsobel, that prety well proves it. You cant read. Either that or you have no short term memory. Cogman started by ofending me:

"you're right, you are no Einstein."

wich was his way of turning around my previous statement into a derogatery term.

So watch who your calling a troll, man.

Besides, your realy sounding wacked. I went thru that internet source site and didnt see anything at all about cell phones.

The whole fact that he put so much weight on a machine that he even says is not common place (3000 seconds to boot, seriously?) really casts a whole lot of doubt.

Again you guys dont seem to be reading what i am. Maybe there is another page im not seeing. He didnt test a machine at 3000 seconds, in fact that number is nowhere in the artical. He used a 1350 seconds because its based on the lawsuit that some lawyer is sueing Microsoft for.

Again, guys, you seem to be makin up stuff and claiming its in that artical. Thats really weird. Maybe had a couple of beers too many tonite? :)

Who uses the internet? Can a cell phone, PDA, ect use the internet? If the study is of internet USERS then it stands to reason that PDAs and cell phones would have to be included (They do infact use the internet).

But seriously, Just ignore everything else I say (You're pretty much doing that anyways). Because obviously you don't want proof that the article is bias, you just want to moan and bitch about how bad vista is.

The article has serious flaws with numbers/logic. NUmbers seemed to have been pulled to support author's hypothesis.

Now that personal attacks are starting to show, the thread is locked
