Vista hangs after updates

You need to understand that Microsoft is a marketing company first. They
also develop software.

The fact that their software is full of bugs when it's released doesn't
matter. There are millions of devotees out there who will tell them about
the bugs. When it suits Microsoft they will release a fix for all the
problems.

In the meantime they will have made millions of dollars. They don't care
that their software is full of bugs. Some of the software they release has a
lot more bugs than others - i.e Vista. They have now probably come to the
conclusion times have changed and that they can't just release anything and
hope their loyal customers will accept their dog food. The old system
doesn't work, millions of their devotees (like yourself) are pissed off.

A free copy of W7 to all people who were conned into purchasing Vista? - I
don't think so.

Remember, Microsoft are a marketing company out to make as much money as
possible. In future stop and think before you purchase any of their
products!
