belong to an elite club within my newsreader. It's called my killfile.
I guess he must be OK
Your rules of engagement are dishonest, and I'm not going to play by
your rules, so enjoy the rest of your game. I found your calling me
delusional of particular irony. In areas where opinion and personal
experience determine the value of something, people who believe their
"truth" is exclusive are usually referred to as zealots. I never
continue discussions with zealots, because they do not possess the
ability to see beyond their belief system.
Thats most of the ink refillers who post here

Incorrect. He cannot provide hearsay as to a comprehensive
analysis of a 3rd party's use of a product. It is quite
likely they do not come to him and converse about this exact
topic so he can report on their sum experiences with Vista,
or much of anything else for that matter. Instead he is
introducing misleading, "supposed" evidence which cannot be
countered merely because it is worthless.
Instead what we do have is the largest backlash against any
version of windows ever, as seen by many online polls. He,
you, and I can all find links to this information. This is
fact, not 3rd party hearsay.
and his informed opinion.
You threw the word "informed" out there as a measure of
bull****. How about sticking to clear facts instead of
fancying yourself a colorful writer? He offered an opinion.
He's entitled to one. That is subjective and does not make
it rational to discount all the opinions of others, not mine
but those easily found by web searches, even linked earlier
in the thread. He choose to discount all counterevidence by
selectively ignoring and declaring it irrelevant
(effectually, I do now forget the exact word used) as if he
can ignore evidence.
Was it without bias? No, we all have personal biases, including you.
Not necessarily applicable, because some have more ability
than others to isolate any personal bias from a pursuit of
truth. Some people stop and consider whether they are
writing something subjective, and do a bit deeper digging.
That is what the links CBFalconer, or the several online
polls, as well as other sources of information provide.
Incredibly enough, even Tony himself conceded there were
issues people are supposed to wait to have addressed, as if
we are supposed to judge the fitness of a product not based
on what it is now, but what it *might* become, someday.
Another subjective opinion, that if an issue doesn't bother
or effect Tony, then it's ok for everyone else too.
I'm terribly sorry to have to write it, but you are either
deluded or intentionally trying to pervert truth. Writing
pages of text about how right you think you are doesn't
further a conversation, it still ignores the points already
made which is anything except the persuit of truth.
