Not what you said, liar.
You said Steve Ballmer, the CEO of Microsoft Officially dissed Vista.
So what does iPhone 4 have to do with Vista?
Answer...nothing...nothing at all.
I beleive the reference was that Apple might have a few problems to iron
out, like MS did with Vista. All new products seem to go through a
maturation period.
Vista SP2 is an excellent OS.
But MS didn't not abandon Vista and there are million of satisfied users
out there.
So your contention, that MS has "Officially dissed Vista" is nothing but
your continued parsing of words and lying.
It is you, the lying sheep-fucker, who needs to STFU!

Trying to change the subject huh? Lets see, you never ever used Vista in
anything anyone would call a "production environment".
In fact, you never even owned a legit copy of Vista at all and you only
got a legit copy of 7 a few weeks ago. You're a a pathological LIAR, LIAR

New isn't always improved. As "Crash" pointed out, Windows 2000 is, in
many ways, superior to later OSs. *IF* MSFT released a 64 bit version
and improved USB support it would probably be the OS of choice for
many, it's smaller, lighter and MUCH faster than any later version of
Windows.

Not only that, but I think those old, dead composers, like Bach and

You really are dumb. The COO of Microsoft compared the flawed iPhone4 to
Vista. Here are some more of your wonderful Microsoft products that have
their rightful place in the Computer Hall of Shame:

First one on the list is, you guessed it, Vista.

I don't know what you have been using in the past but Win 7 is very good at
finding files. I don't know how you could make it easier. >

OK, so I will summarise where we have got to in response to my comment that
attaching a file to an email is not simple because Windows 7 is a bit coy
about where it keeps things.

Here is the dead simple, trivial, easy to use and I am thick method:

1. Write the email and click on attach file:

2. Click the start button
3. In the search box type the name of the file you wish to attach
4. When it provides a list of results, right click on the correct file (if
there is more than one, right click on each and write down the full
pathnames
5. Open Computer and navigate to the file of choice, double click on it if
you wish to check it is the correct one
6. Once sure is is OK, go back to the email software and click on the
browse facility
7. Navigate to the file and double click it.

I just think it would be easier if the user knew where things were saved, if
full pathnames were shown by the software, if the search facility found them
like it unerringly did in XP, if the search list did not vanish on selecting
one file, if the search list showed the pathname, if the files were not
stored in very odd places, if users were given documentation to tell them
where things were saved, if the help system explained where things were
saved

If these things were so, the instructions would be:

1. Ensure you know where the file is
2. Write the email and click on attach file:
3. Click Browse and browse to the file
4. Double click it.

Something like that anyway. The point is that the first step is not a
trivial matter, as people have been claiming, because of the file locations,
omitting pathnames from normal display, and some of the behaviour of the
search system. I assume that people are being so defensive because of the
original over the top comment made by a person of doubtful judgement.

Vista was a flop? Really? Then why are there millions, that's
*MILLIONS*, of happy, contended Vista users through the world, huh?
Why does Microsoft continue to wholly support it huh?
Can't answer those questions can you.
Figures.
Also, I am one of those contended users. You never...never ever, used Vista.

Yes I did and I didn't like it and sold it to a sucker like you.

Oops, it's Chief Operating Officer.

So what.
He got the XP/Vista/Win7 development history wrong.
He doesn't know his ass from a whole in the ground.
He's just like you.

No need to do all that - drag the file from the search window to the new
email message....

(I deleted lots of unmarked or incorrectly marked quoted material in an
attempt to make it possible to track the above.)

I have no idea why you're clicking on the start button or a browse button.
When I try to attach a document in Windows Live Mail, the program instantly
opens a pretty good imitation of an Explorer screen, and in a few seconds I
can navigate to a document or two. It was trivially easy, and I don't even
*use* Windows Live Mail.

You seem to be working hard to misdirect your efforts. I suggest you find
some tutorial online or buy a decent book and work from there.

Um, I don't think that MS' Chief Operating Officer's opinion about Vista
is "an opinion of bloggers".
