Reminds me of an older post.

Scary Technology: Microsoft Vista

The fear of having your games go to the grave (no compatibility), your
computer unprotected, the hidden DRM (wherever it's embedded) proving to
have stolen rights...
Lots for those who adopt Vista to be scared about...
http://news.com.com/Cisco+exec+Windows+Vista+is+scary/2100-7355_3-6116823.html?tag=nefd.top
Even Cisco says that Vista is scary
My motive here is probably to warn those who think of moving to Vista rather
than upgrade to GNU/Linux. It's about freedom, not just Linux. Liberty is
not in indutry's interests... they thrive on control and waste, so they work
hand-in-hand to 'punish' the customer.
