That is the worse review I've ever read. There are a few useful items in the review but these are completely lost in a pile of useless nitpicking and "filler" as the author tried to compile the biggest list he could.
Some of it shows a lack of understanding:
UAC should detect when I, as a user, have told it more than 5x that it?s okay to launch into a particular dialog. This could possibly be a toggle for power users somewhere, but not available for the average user.
UAC does not pay attention to what dialog you are launching, it pays attention to when admin level security is needed. If you open computer managment 5x then don't get prompted on the 6th, what happens when some app decides to use the same privleges and install MaliciousFilterDriver.sys ?? Also, you CAN disable UAC prompting for some apps or altogether. Of course this won't help grandma when she double clicks that virus again.
Some of it is nitpicky:
Safely Remove Hardware dialog is in Microsoft Sans Serif.
Some of it is unimportant:
Can?t you make the default screen saver something a little more exciting than the jumping Windows Vista logo?
Some of it is stupid:
What if I don?t like the red ?X? close button? Why can?t I change that to? purple?
The guy did not point out anything important that needs fixed. Like the fact there is no easy way to switch from the Strong host model to the more traditional Weak host model. Might come in handy on those multihomed boxes. Instead of putting together a bitch list why doesn't he go enroll in beta and actually submit some bugs?
