Glad to hear all said mostly the same.

U know what? Bear listen to Eben Moglen’s speech at plone conference.

He said something that makes economical sense. Ask yourself, which would you like to buy, an uncomfortable shoe for RM300 or a comfortable shoe for RM70? Point is people pay for good products. If no good, why pay the price?

Everybody shd take the hint from Intel n Dell who are not deploying until the first service pack (bear think some time august or later). Dell ubuntu laptop/desktop… not here yet, so no supported OS option, unless DIY. Regardless, Bear is worried about MS investors. It seems that the complexity of the OS is hitting a limit and would not move further unless transparency and openness is introduced to solve it. If MS dun do it…. OMG!!! The logic will become free one works better than paid one. Is there still a business?

But if u listen to Eben’s tok, he is arguing on something greater than that of freedom and human prosperity. Something that in the past several hundred years, was not possible, until today. And that sprit of sharing and living as a community will bring the world together, promote peace, liberty, and prosoperity.

The most obvious lesson to learn from supergiant Microsoft : Never stop at leveraging on others to make sales soar and soar and soar….

Dunnolah.

Bear will feel bad if bear sell bad thing to people. The sense of guilt is deep. Bear’s CTO decided to remove all vista OS and downgrade to XP.

We found too many problems with no solutions.

1. Incompatible Drivers, causing frequent, unpredictable restarts.
2. “what u cut is not what u paste” – Missing from clipboard in windows and MS offices. Something is dead wrong with interop.
3. Alot of incompatible softwares, close source, can’t do anything but watch.
4. Lots of opensource apps not working on vista (cos alot of dev dun hv vista to dev, most heard to migrated to linuxes of their own choice). It will take us too long to fix even some.It is not our core business, so no go.
5. Good point, colorful screen of death, chose which ever color u like. Seen few colors already.
6. and etc etc etc….

The only ppl I heard saying vista good is MS Staff bear knew. Some how they cannot tell the difference between working n not working softwares.

Sigh… what happened to quality softwares? what happen to beta testing of vista? and the company is damn proud that they force sell to ppl a broken software… well it is not broken, it was not working in the first place. Dunno what happen to the millions of dollars spent on R & D in ms. why it end up worst? Several financial hses had downgrade ms stock… is that a sign investor leaving?

Bear dun think blind marketing shd take place. The product must be good in the first place to sell well. Come to think of it, only no good product, hard to sell product need marketing. U make the judgement.
