Windows Vista was New Coke.
I'd say a good argument could be made for that.

is better than Vista is (as a statement) virtually

I'm using 7 Professional 64bit for a few weeks now, got a business license right after the OEM/business release. I switched from XP and I'm satisfied big time. Everything's smooth, no crashes so far, all my weird hardware and software runs like it should. I like it.

Two weeks in now. Some tics, tremors and fleeting signs of near spinouts. It's almost like it's really, really trying to be a big boy. And it's so, so hard. Concentrate, little guy, we're pulling for you.
