Wow. Aren't they expecting people to buy Vista w/o som encouragement?

Note all the anti-virus-antispyware software they are giving away with it.

Not sure if thats a good or a bad sign.

Is Vista actually less secure? I thought it was supposed to be more. but I didn't do a lot of research.

Ive heard its supposed to be more secure but i just thought it was odd how they were giving away that software with it.

How is Vista pronounced? Is it Vista (short i) or Veesta (long e)?

Short i I believe.

like asta la vista ;-)

Great post. Thanks for the info.
