Vista was a great OS with a bad reputation thanks to early grumbles - it is the Riddick of operating systems if you will. You compare it to Windows 7 - that's like the David Cameron of operating systems - everyone talks about how great it/he is, but really it's just another Eaton toff who'll screw us for every penny and deliver exactly the same as what we already have - it/he looks a little different, maybe a little younger, but underneath it/he is exactly the same.

I think Gav deserves some kind of prize for the most tortured metaphor yet on X404...

Never used Tiger, but in many ways I prefer Vista to Leopard and Snowy - not much in it really.

Using Vista and OS X every day, I'd put Snow Leopard just ahead of Vista, but in general use, there isn't much in it.
