This article illustrates the problem Microsoft has with public perception of Vista.  It supports my point about how terrible their Vista marketing has been.  Basically they got people to try out a new OS called Mojave and asked them whether they liked it – 90% of them did.  But it wasn’t Mojave, it was Vista – which shows that the problem is the perception, not reality.
