The New Microsoft?

Interesting turnabout for MS on the development of Win7....

Windows 7 born from Vista's frustrations - CNN.com

Quote:
"Until Vista, Microsoft was fully thinking on their own and implementing their own ideas and then releasing it," said Gianpiero Morbello, a vice president for Taiwanese PC maker Acer.

This time around, though, Microsoft shared its earliest plans, sought input, and held regular meetings with the PC makers. In addition, it dedicated engineering teams to work with each of the biggest computer makers to help them work through any issues specific to their designs.

I think they should be required to give everyone who hates Vista, a free copy of 7. I've only heard of a few people who even remotely liked Vista. Not one of them love it; Most of them tolerate it. And isn't it amazing...the concept of listening to the people!!!!!!????
Glad I stayed with XP Home & XP Pro for my computers...
