Troubles Of Windows Vista

Many people think that I am crazy for only using Microsoft products and computers – but let’s be honest and admit that not everything Microsoft makes and touches is bad. Sure there are always bugs they have to get rid of and kinks to smooth down – but in the end they make great programs that millions of people use. Unfortunately Windows Vista does not fall under that category.

Ever since its release consumers have been complaining about the problems that it has. This and the fact that Microsoft has never gotten around to truly working out these problems is enough to throw some people over the edge and into a complete frenzy. Especially when that computer has become their livelihood.

Right now I have a computer that uses Windows Vista and have not had any problems – but it took me awhile to warm up to it. Last year I bought a brand new desktop. The first brand new computer and desktop in 4 years. I was proud of this computer and couldn’t wait to get it started. Naturally this new computer had Vista programmed right into it and there was nothing I could do about it.

At first the program mpressed me. The graphics were amazing and the layout was smooth. The first negative I spotted was the nagging! It’s one thing to have your partner nagging at you all day to pick up after yourself or not too forget to take out the garbage. But for your computer to nag as well? That’s just downright annoying and something that none of us have patience for.

It seemed that every move I made was analyzed by the program and had to make sure that I really wanted to go through with it. This is a protection measure that Microsoft thought people would love. It turned out to be one of the things that people hated most about it. Not one week after buying the new computer it crashed and I quickly returned it to get my money back.

I am not saying that Vista crashed it. It is possible that the computer was a model that was not built properly or maybe it just couldn’t take touting an operating system that couldn’t handle new things. It is true that some things about Vista have been fixed – but there are still Vista problems that people have. Yet, that doesn’t always stop them from buying it. In fact I think over time Vista has become more popular. I suppose we all love a little trouble and danger.
