    I think Bill Gates should be jailed literally for bringing out Vista.

    Millions of people are STILL going through hell because of Vista!
    In their work lives, In their school lives and in their Home lives

    I think Bill Gates should literally be sent to jail for releasing Vista 5 years before it was ready & KNOWING he was going to make millions of peoples lives that little bit more unhappy makes it even worse

    he released the CRAP anyway :(

    It seems you are very angry towards the billionaire. Sure, he would not have expected such colossal failure of his dream project, vista :mad:

    How much did Bill Gates actually do with Vista? It's not like he programmed the stinking OS, so how can it be his fault for it being buggy. I would also like to point at that many people are not making sure they have the correct hardware before running Vista, which is why many of them are having problems.

    Bill Gates don't have much to do with the company anymore I hear. More of a figure then any kind of operations person. It does suck which is why I run XP.

    Bill Gates is no longer going to do anything with Microsoft. He hasn't done THAT much for a while now anyhow.

    Even though he doesn't have much to do with the company anymore, I'm still guessing BIG things like releasing Vista before it was ready, would have no doubt been given the go ahead by him first

    Maybe it was the consumers who weren't ready? I have never had one single problem with Vista myself.

    I work on 4 different problem vista ran computers, and if your not having problems, I'm pretty sure you purchased the computer with Vista already on it.

    It's the upgrading they appeared to have never got right and the the problems with

    I wait for around 2 years to upgrade to the new windows version, same happened with WIN98, XP was a mess at first, then all the feedbacks and testing and service packs and new softwares from device producers and everything, it starts to be user friendly. Well with this calculation i should upgrade to Vista in about 8 months or so, yea i might then, not now. XP is still cool.

    I believe he is officially leaving Microsoft this there, he already has no active role in the company

    I still prefer XP over Vista but jailing Bill is a bit extreme.
