Windows Vista becomes a global public enemy?

This is an old question and a new question. It is not only interesting, but also a classic question: Computer Hate Windows Vista?

For Tim Beyers, the director of the Motley Fool, he also wanted to know what the answer was, because almost all of the analysts in the U.S. stock market were full of questions.ReleaseAccording to the quarterly report, Microsoft's System Department made a profit of only $ 1st for the 4.03 billion quarter, a $0.3 billion reduction from the market forecast.

Researchers from Gartner, a research institute, are busy making rounds. There are probably fewer companies using the Vista system. however, the giant himself is proud to stress that it is not a problem. He has sold 0.14 billion Vista systems in the United States alone.

Tim Beyers is confused. Is it the global anti-Vista tornado? Or is it just a casual talk from people on the market?

He decided to find the answer online.

He input "I hate Vista (I hate Vista)" and then press "Search". What is the result?

There are 5620 results in ask.comGoogle42200, Yahoo! A maximum of 0.149 million results are available. Interestingly, you can search for 26800 results on Microsoft's live.com.

Therefore, this master believes that some people really hate Vista very much.

What about other operating systems? Search for I hate windows on Google and get 60800 results. If you search for "I hate macs", there are only 22600 results. To be more precise, search for "I hate Mac OSX ", the webpage only returns 585 results to you.

Tim Beyers believes that, in fairness, this is nothing remarkable. This result only reflects the distribution of market share. there are many people who use Windows and hate it, of course. However, despite this, anti-Microsoft is a situation on the Internet, and there is no doubt that Internet users are fighting against Vista.

The Edit Group of the computer magazine Info World launched the Windows XP rescue operation in January this year. They believed that Vista had no progress as the next generation of XP. galen gruman, executive editor-in-chief of the magazine, once said: "Over the past year, the heads of information technology departments of enterprises have repeatedly told me that Vista has no advantages, they also don't want to spend time and money updating computers, training employees, and handling a lot of flashy, always incompatible upgrade demands."

It's not just Info World. Next, 0.16 million people will respond in the "Save xp.com" tribe.

Is Microsoft so stupid? Not all. Last week, CEO Steve Ballmer told reporters that although it is planned to stop selling XP after June 30, "If the consumer is enthusiastic, we will soon be as good as possible ."

Since then, Microsoft has been speechless. perhaps this is just a public relations scene-and it is necessary to help the delayed launch and cold market reaction of the operating system to speak well; but it also shows that, microsoft is in a mess.

Why is it so messy? Microsoft told the consumer last week that the latest update notification will be released through public download on March 13, April 29. however, paying users, such as professional technology companies that use private enterprise networks such as technet and msdn, will not receive updates until at least May 2. this immediately caused an uproar.

Computer World later reported that a similar situation had occurred as early as February this year, and the user's strong rebound forced Microsoft to give up.

Tim Beyers said: Is Microsoft really at this point? No, they used to accuse developers and engineers in court, which is hard for Apple to follow.

In this case, Microsoft sent an email to computer world, stressing that these updates are sufficient to meet the needs of Vista upgrade, but only in terms of bandwidth requirements, for XP users, it must be further strengthened.

Tim Beyers does not understand this and thinks that Microsoft is only shirking responsibility and throwing the bandwidth problem to the responsible person for executing its download and update. Service If Microsoft really thinks so, who else wants to buy Vista? Besides Akamai, Microsoft also uses limelight networks to provide services, and has never heard of any problems.

Even if Akamai is responsible for the network congestion vehicles that downloaded updates last week, it cannot explain why Microsoft refused to compromise on XP, especially when there are so many consumers-and professional-remind you; these people control the company's IT spending budget and only want to continue using XP.

Tim Beyers shouted to Steve Ballmer: "Wake up." At the same time, he gradually realized that Apple's Mac system market share was originally based on Microsoft's stupidity!

Global PC manufacturers share the same feeling. for example, Dell intends to take advantage of the legal vulnerability in the Windows Vista licensing contract and continue selling XP computers to the consumers who demanded them after January 1, June 30. hewlett-Packard is expected to follow up.

Timbeyers lamented that the basic difference between Apple and Microsoft over the past few decades is that Microsoft is willing to listen to consumers for their mistakes, apple will persuade consumers to try new products. such a corporate culture is the same in the past and the future is also the case.
