I despise this operating system, literally. I was one of the earlier adopters and after forking over much tango denero to buy this sorry excuse for an operating system, I soon came to realize it would be littered with more bugs than a 400 year-old wooden porch. Crashes occured daily, blue screens a plenty. You name it. And that is not even considering the lack of driver support. This GIGO operating system found ways to surprise me, and in a bad way. So I waited patiently, thinking SP1 would save the day. Last week, I installed SP1, only to have this operating system show me new blue screens of frozen tundra. Crashing daily, sometimes twice a day! This for me is quite common. And this is a clean install computer! Gates, give me back my damn money! You should be paying me to use this junk!

There’s no way the quality will be high enough to trust it if it ships early.” “If this ships in October, I will recommend not installing it and waiting for the first service pack.
