Hubris & Technology
Hubris of Microsoft's Vista
February01,2007 12:38 | Permalink
First and foremost, what sort of hubris is it when it
takes a company (Microsoft) five to six years to
release a new operating system, and the new operating
system is an almost complete rip-off of another? All
the great new features of Vista have been in Mac's
OSX for quite some time now. Next is the hubris done
to the average consumer, who, to fully utilize this
'revolutionary that's not really revolutionary'
operating system, essentially needs to buy a
completely new computer - an increased graphics card,
multi-core processor, massive upgrade in ram are all
recommended just to use the OS.
