Poorly written article..
Slow boot times - not for me.. It boots and runs a lot faster then Vista SP-2..
Beware of drivers - This isn't the main issue we haven't updated. The reason was because of the high hardware requirements and even though, Vista runs slow.

No slow boot times here either.
And the networking is finally fixed!
I can finally pull/push 75-100MB/Sec over my Gigabit Lan to my WHS.
In Vista, typical was 10 if I was lucky. The hacks could get me maybe 20. SP2 improved things to 30 sometimes 40.
But, like MS said, it was never broken. LOL

The replies from the peanut gallery after the story are far worse than the story.

It wasn't just MS saying it. However, now that 7 is almost here, the AW MS faithful can follow the MS tack of slagging the old OS and pumping up the new one.

I'm still trying to decipher what "This isn't the main issue we haven't updated." means.
