Question for XP converts/Vista bashers

Not surprisingly, most XP users who try Seven, like it. Some even love it as much, if not more than XP after using it for a length of time.


Sometimes, these are the very same converts who called Seven "Vista Sp2, Vista SP3 etc" since Seven was first seen. The same users who would use XP 'to the death'.

My question is, why do a large proportion of those convert users insist on continually bashing Vista? What's the point?

The most vocal usually being those who have either 'used it for 5 mins, never used it all or my personal favourite: "They heard it's crap from someone who knows about computers".

Very broadly speaking, despite the refinements between Vista and Seven, the differences between the two is fundamentally not that huge.

So what is with the continued vitriol against Vista?

It was boring then and like most boring memes, it's just passée now, yet it won't go away

They are like the people at Apple. They bash what they can't understand or out do.

Vista is a fine OS. But we had XP for to long and people could not deal with the radical change Vista brought.

Apple saw it as a chance to try and push their failing OS on the people who would not accept that change.

Now with Win7 finally out Apple is bashing harder than ever because thay know thay are screwed. All that market share thay got will leave X10 when the macaddics get aload of 7.
