The Market Speaks Again On Vista v. Windows XP

Computer maker Dell is offering down downgrade customers from Windows Vista to Windows XP, for a price. And, people are paying that price.

You know that you deeply, horribly screwed up your product upgrade, when people are paying extra to get the supposedly inferior product. What was Microsoft thinking?

Andrew,

Stop thinking about MS operating systems and buy a Mac.
My offer still stands.

I don't even have Vista, and I do like Macs, although my current system is working quite well right now. What I am really facinated by, however, is bad business management. How can a titan of the industry so screw it up and prosper doing so.
