Comment

I think one of the major issues with Vista and which all software will/is coming across, is that the existing software already does most if not all of what people want.

We have been used to new released of software bringing with them eagerly awaited new features but that is increasingly not the case.

Much software has now got to the stage of the over-complex VCR. It may have 101 functions, but actually most people simply want something that records and plays back simply and reliably. Why then go through the pain of an upgrade to get a lot of functions you probably will never use?
