There were a lot of gossips about new “almighty” Operating System of Microsoft, but it seems that most of disadvantages of Vista were just myths. It’s useless to compare different types of OS like Nix vs. Win, or Mac vs. Win: they’re all different and have their own advantages and disadvantages, therefore, the most suitable way of checking if Microsoft has done something good, would be comparing XP and Vista.

TechRepublic wrote a very good article about main myths of Vista Release, and it’s worth of reading, because it destroys the myths about “hardware” requirements, and that it contains more then new upgraded interface.

And for those, who still believes that Vista is much more expensive then XP - check the pricelist before saying that.
