AHH! THE START MENU! ITS SO BIG AND AWKWARD !
I would get it, but I do not want to buy it.
And then theres the bugs, and the other problems, drivers, etc...

But could someone please explain the background?

(I have to admit, Vista looks more clean, like a crist* clean white piece of paper)

(*Paper is not "crisp", if it were, it would sound like a food)
