The Folgers ads proved exactly the same things that the "Mohave Experiment" proved. They proved that people say nice things to strangers on camera. And they proved that you can make people say they like something if you control the conditions in which they're exposed to it.

Using vista everyday, no problem at all. I'm a java/flex developer so not a basic user and Vista works really fine for me.
And just for information : I bought it ! :)

This article is not "What's wrong with Vista?" it is about the marketing argument built with the 'Mojave Experiment' Windows used to say that Vista had been the victim of unfounded rumors ... anyway ...

Yeah... the beginning of the article is just like Vista is slow, Vista is buggy,... So it is already a taste of the article... anyway...

for example in the article (not the beginning): "The problem with Vista is not that it doesn't demo well. Vista looks great when an expert cherry picks features for you and shows them to you with a Microsoft-configured and optimized machine. The problem with Vista is the experience of using it every day in the real world with real third-party hardware and software."

Yeah... only the marketing... anyway...

Interesting read. Microsoft Vista may become better that XP at some point, but the important thing highlighted in the article is that this is not the whole truth.
