It's Ugly... so ugly I wouldn't even buy it.

Sorry but if MS wants to sell me an OS, it needs to look good.

Functionality and features are also a consideration, but if its ugly I don't want to use it.

Hopefully as the builds progress, it will get better.

Then you'll be stuck in the past as those who cling onto Win98 are. Sure the OS works but they're missing a lot of improvements with XP. Not switching because it "looks ugly" to you is a lousy reason.

Wrong... I can just move to another operating system. I bought a mac mini and love it. What windows vista is like will determine if I permanently switch over to Mac OS.

Not the type of comment I'd expect from a staff member.

Just becuase I'm a staff member doesn't mean I have to bow down to MS and worship everything they release. I'm entitled to my opinions.
