Vista is nothing but Shock (Score 1)

A while back I posted the problems we had as a developer of VoIP software on Vista. You can check it at http://turngeek.blogspot.com/2008/01/vista-sound-quality-issues-with-voip.html. Vista breaks 90% of the multimedia and gaming software out there without providing any alternative ways for these apps to work with existing sound cards. It has left the rest of the industry in a state of limbo. We all know we have to support Vista at the end, but I am just amazed at the audacity of a company to release software without any consideration for users. I guess that is what a monopoly does and a bad one. I for one am happy that little Billy is formally out of MS and I hope MS merges with an internet company like Yahoo! Maybe MS will learn as much from Yahoo! as Yahoo! does from MS and we all will benefit. I eagerly await Vista SP1, not because I am going to use it (I have decided to go buy an Apple when my XP machine fails me - which is going pretty solid at this point) but my customers are probably stuck with Vista and I care about them...
