"Fortunately, Microsoft has a website devoted to answering these questions, although it takes the ludicrously 
arrogant stance of informing potential punters whether or not they are ready for Vista, rather than the other way 
round. It's quite irritating, actually, because the only question that needs answering is whether MS and partners 
have enough device drivers handy and have exorcised enough of the bugs from this bloatware monster to enable 
it to run properly on the equipment that most users have got. Remember, we call it an "operating system", not an 
"operated system", for a reason: it's the OS's duty to run your machine, not your machine's duty to run the OS - 
but just try making that point to a Microserf."
