Vista Black Hole

The reason why everyone who wants Vista, on their computer, is for its nice new Graphical user interface, new nobs and buttons. What you don`t realise is you are subscribing to DRM digital rights management, so the software will police what software you want to play on your machine .At the same time forcing firms that build graphic cards and ad ons to comply with the software built in encrypted rules ,made by microsoft to allow the hard ware to work, going back to Old NT, where nothing worked straight off bat, you had to install different drivers for each item you wanted to work.But with the added burden of extra licencing that will have to be paid for by the end user.You won`t see that advertised as Microsoft will tell everyone what a great new os they are bringing out.Read article by Mr Gutmann

I like Microsoft OS but this new Vista seems to be over reaching itself by dictating what software you can install as well as hardware , and what you can and cannot watch, won`t let you play unlicenced music, ie mp3 not allowed?? if not yet maybe later it can change rules how your computer works by on line udates, one day you can play a game another day you will be not allowed, by an update, big brother is here..
