From the article:

"Last month, Forrester said that by the end of 2007 only 6.3% of 50,000
enterprise computer users it surveyed were working with Vista."

Part of that 6.3% is Frank's "business". LOL!

How so?

The post is on topic, about Vista, and something everyone who was stupid
enough to buy Vista should know.

If you want to know who the trolls really are, do search for "sheep fukker".

I hate to say it but I think this post is not that far off. In my company
we have been evaluating Vista at the enterprise level and have decided to
stick with XP. A few of our developers are using Vista, but only at home.
Vista is not used on the desktop at work. With all the problems that Vista
poses and the support issues to the "client", we are staying away. Over
the last few weeks we have been testing Vista and although it seem stable
for some, for others there are just too many problems. We have just begun
testing with SP1 and although Vista has shown improvement, it's not been
enough to migrate our business to it.

I have XP and Vista at home on two seperate machines. Most of my
development is done on XP and I do testing on Vista. So far Vista just
doesn't cut the mustard right now. I do enjoy using Vista, but at this
point will not do any serious development on that platform.

I like Vista but I don't love Vista.

My employer just refuses to buy Vista machines. They have twenty odd XP
machines which all work fine - why would anybody want to start mixing an
unknown OS on the network which will just cause user confustion for no
benefit.

Just what are the benefits of Vista for the business user? I just don't
think there are any at all for the vast majority of businesses.

Right now there are no benefits for the Vista user, unless you are
developing software and HAVE to test for the Vista environment.

I agree with one suggestion that the only way to save Vista and Microsoft
reputation is to offer all Vista users a free upgrade to Vista Ultimate (and
make that the only version so their developers can concentrate on fixing
just one version) or else a free upgrade to XP.

Microsoft's reputation went out the proverbial Windows when they
instituted WPA and WGA and assumed ALL of their customers are pirates
until they prove differently over and over and over and over again.
