What happened to Frank's assertion that "billions" of people are using

Vista? Another lie? Just because Dell, HP and the boys ordered 60

million copies doesn't mean 60 million were sold to end users. Most are

gathering dust in Dell, HP and the boys' warehouses.

As they are a creation of your mind I don't suppose they ever will be able

to.

Thats one advantage you have by being crazy.. you can't be wrong in your own

Well punk, I'm throwing the challenge down. PROVE any of the mental

particular Vista issues wasn't factual.

 

Can you? My guess you'll just go on mindlessly flapping your gums

No thanks.

I don't get anything from mocking the mentally ill.

I have tried to explain to you that you stupid attacks on everyone you

pigeon hole as a fanboy just make you look crazy but it failed because you

are crazy. You will just have to be ignored unless you mislead others and

they need proper guidance.

hehehe...oh, that's so easy and you've just trapped yourself (as

usual)...you really are stupid and dumb.

Remember that Asus mobo you bought and blamed MS for it not working when

all along it was Asus's fault for not shipping it with the correct BIOS

and you blabbered on about it for days until finally you'd made a real

ass out of yourself. You were wrong then and you've been wrong many

times since. You're just a big mouth arrogant POS as*hole loser.

Now lets hear you try and lie your way out of that one you mental midget

moron.

Wow! Now I know you've really lost it today Alias!

 

So you really think that Circuit City, Best Buy, Staples, Office Depot

and the rest have hit upon a new marketing ploy to only feature systems

that nobody will buy?

 

In any case if you think of the 60 million "Most are gathering dust in

Dell, HP and the boys' warehouses" you may want to consider that Dell

doesn't have warehouses so "HP and the boys" have the over 30 million

gathering dust, which is nearly all of their sales (or non-sales) and

certainly more than all of their non-BTO sales. That implies that

they're building systems they know they can't sell just to put them in

warehouses that they're trying to get rid of.

 

I think you would have heard a little murmur from them, or at least a

little gloating from their competitors, if that were true.

 

Now, I don't really know what the true figure is (and maybe nobody

really does). But all that I see tells me that of the loads of machines

with Vista being sold and thrown up at the ceiling, most of them are

sticking.

I'm guessing you really have to work at it to be as big a moron as you

seem to be. Your stupid words games don't fool anybody. Nobody denies

that Vista isn't selling, rather the stupid claim a BILLION copies are

in use, have been sold or whatever the latest out of thin air claim

the fanboy crowd makes, even the stupid 60,000,000 figure that's

getting tossed out that has no basis other than the typical Microsoft

marketing hype it is based on.

 

A far more accurate way to judge how well Vista is doing would be for

Microsoft to release figures on how many people have activated. Then

at least you know roughly how many units have been installed.

Naturally there will be a 30 day lag, assuming most that do buy and

install Vista will activate before Vista locks them out.

 

Another way to look at how well Vista is doing would be for Microsoft

to say how many people have returned their copy for a refund. Don't

hold your breath waiting for either to happen.

 

Of course you clowns who spent most of your time seeing which of you

can stick your head up Steve Ballmer ass the furthest, don't want to

deal in reality. so you just continue to scream and yell and come

across as numbnuts.

You just can't stand the facts can you?

60 Million and counting.

http://cybernetnews.com/2007/07/26/60-million-copies-of-windows-vista-sold/

Grow up and live with it.

You're right! Vista is here and XP is history. Sooner or later you'll have to bite the

bullet and besides Vista purrs once you get it set up right!

Facts? A stupid clown like you has no idea what actual facts are. You

just proved it again by referencing the same dumb web site that was

already discredited.

I know that MS reported what it sold and that the lion's share of that

sale went to big OEMs who haven't sold them all. This is mere common sense.

The web site specifically states that "Microsoft sold 60 million". To

whom, pray tell, the end user? No, to OEMs who must have bought a slew

of Basic, judging by what's for sale at your local Carrefour (those are

the good people who keep Walmart out of Europe).

 

I asked TWO computer store chains here what was requested more, XP or

Vista and, at both places, it was XP, even though all their advertising

is pushing Vista Home Premium or Basic.

If you knew anything at all about manufacturing you would realize no company

would want millions of anything sitting on the shelf not earning money.

Inventory always has a high turnover. Having inventory sitting on the shelf

is lost revenue. It simply doesn't happen.

"Fair use is not merely a nice concept--it is a federal law based on

free speech rights under the First Amendment and is a cornerstone of the

creativity and innovation that is a hallmark of this country. Consumer

rights in the digital age are not frivolous."
