From Plunger on the FOOL on Vista

I just got a new laptop, they are all Vista now. This one has Home Premium.

1. Vista is incompatible with my mobile PCI datacard, so I'm no longer mobile. I can't beliee this is the only instance where MS have made incompatible changes. They certainly know how to be hated.

2. I have had huge problems installing some software. Although I gave myself Administrator priveleges, Vista didn't quite give me verything, ie not "special priveleges". So, although I was the only user I wasn't allowed to make certain registry changes, and had to set up another user, super-administrator, non-password protected ... which rather defeats the object of user passwords. Unnecessarily complex for a one-user home system IMO. MS certainly know how to be loathed.

Or maybe I'm unusually inept.

Plunger.
