Microsoft looks to ‘Mojave’ to revive Vista’s image
Microsoft last week traveled to San Francisco, rounding up Windows XP users who had negative impressions of Vista. The subjects were put on video, asked about their Vista impressions, and then shown a “new” operating system, code-named Mojave. More than 90 percent gave positive feedback on what they saw. Then they were told that “Mojave” was actually Windows Vista.“Oh wow,” said one user,
Ironic, so perhaps it’s perception not usage that has led to at least part of any negative response to Vista.
I have Windows Vista on all my machines excepting Windows XP Pro on a laptop, which I did not upgrade because of Intel’s 915 chipset, which does not support Windows Aero.
Intel continued to provide motherboards with the 915 graphics embedded, and OEM’s sold them, right up to and after Windows Vista was launched.
