Windows Vista Update

Thanks for screwing up my favourite programs

Typical of Microsoft. Produce a bloated operating system full of rubbish I neither want or need, and then make it so that favourite programs no longer work.

OK so Corel Draw 10 isn't state of the art, but it cost a lot of money at the time and does what I want,or at least it used to. Not any more.

All I want an operating system to do is provide a platform to run my programs on and a filing system so that I can store and find things.

That's it.

I'll look after browsers, music players, firewalls etc. Just make the platform quick, stable and minimal in its' use of resources.

Just because Americans are obese doesn't mean their software has to be.
