I found this story from ComputerWorld, "Dell pointed out Microsoft's Vista mistakes, internal docs show," to be disturbing.
Gregg Keizer's Feb. 29 story said that, "Last-minute changes to Windows Vista broke drivers, forcing key hardware vendors to "limp out with issues" when the operating system launched last year, according to a presentation by Dell Inc. that was made public this week."
This report comes only a week after an AP story, "Suit Against Microsoft Over Vista OK'd." According to the story, a U.S. district judge said that "consumers may go ahead with a class action lawsuit against Microsoft Corp. over the way it advertised computers loaded with Windows XP as capable of running the Vista operating system."
