Don't let the facts get in the way of a *good* story

Or in this case a tremendously mediocre story.

This has to be one of the most terrible pieces of dribble I have ever read about Vista. Half of the article isn't even really about Vista... it's about .Net 3.0!

This article does not explain why developers are avoiding Vista. Instead it just seeds the fear of businesses to move onto the next operating system.

There was no point to this story until the issue of migration to Vista was mentioned. A lot of the time you will find that the reason this is such an issue is because the application was poorly developed to begin with, especially in the Windows Forms and .Net world.

I can't believe such nonsense is being published on such a reputable site. I'm disappointed.
