Ha ha, was I right or was I right? This is another of my writing pieces from last year, before Vista started forcing people to other operating systems. Fortunately, now we have better options besides Vista. Ubuntu's latest version is amazing, and will be easy for anyone to use.
As you may or may not know, Microsoft is developing the nexxt version of Windows, which will be released sometime next year. This is bad news for almost everyone.
The next version, called Vista, requires 1 gigabyte of RAM to run the full version. Almost no one has this. That means that people will be forced to buy new computers just to run basic programs. In a few years M$ (Microsoft) will drop backwards-compatibility, and all new programs will require Vista. So how does M$ get away with this?
By forcing people to buy new computers, M$ is doing hardware manufacturers a favor. The hardware manufacturers return the favor by not releasing drivers for their hardware, making other operating systems non-compatible with many computers, which gives M$ more business.
