Worse Upgrade I've Ever Had
I've gotta be honest, I thought that Windows 98 had issues. I've been with
Microsoft since windows original. I've upgraded to every release. There
hasn't been 1 that I can remember that was a totally smooth rollout. But
this one, woah, this one is definitely DOA and definitely is and was not
ready for PRIME time! QA PEOPLE! Don't through your high overpriced pieces
of crap software...

Vista "Repair Install" Are Installed Programs Preserved?
I've read in various articles that the Vista equivalent of an XP Repair

storage devices on one Vista install (tried the delete INFCACHE.1 trick),
and I've read elsewhere that reinstalling the OS may be the only solution.
If I do the upgrade, will ...
