I do not believe that Vista deserves as much grief as it has been receiving. It is not as bad as people make it out to be. It only hurts people who are using legacy hardware or software. For those people who argue that there are so many complaints as opposed to praises, you could argue that the people who complain tend to be the loud ones who are posting about their problems whereas everyone that has Vista working does not actually post their praises.

Though I do have some criticism for Vista. It is obviously a resource hog, though I do not notice it since I have a fairly decent computer and I really only use it for a few basic needs. The price is also a very displeasing aspect of it. If you have to buy it standalone, it takes a large chunk of money. It also is not much of an improvement of XP, the extra resources required is probably not used very efficiently.

Overall, I believe that it isn't a bad operating system, just an operating system that you should not be attempting to seek out at all costs.
