{mosimage}"The new version of Microsoft Windows, called Vista, has slipped again. It was originally going to ship in 2003. Then 2005. Then 2006. Now in early 2007. I'm not surprised, having seen a demo of Microsoft's new programs at an 'event' for tech buyers in New York last week," Daniel Lyons writes for Forbes.


"The new programs are phenomenally complex, with scores of buttons and pull-down menus and myriad connections among various applications.



Meanwhile, 500 tech buyers sat there in the dark, their eyes glazing over from the sheer mind-numbing pointlessness of most of this stuff. The audience laughed out loud when the Microsoft guy showed off a kludgey system that lets you fetch Outlook e-mail messages using voice commands from a cell phone."


Man ... Microsoft have truly lost it.
