ITworld.com -為什麼Windows XP應該取得到直到窗口7
唐Reisinger， ITworld.com
作為世界的最突出操作系統，窗口控制了技術產業為很好在十年，并且它的競爭者- Mac OS x和Linux -未獲取這种滲透微軟有。
但自天視窗98，我們被迫應付沼澤困擾了個體和公司的窗口問題。 而不是高度直覺的操作系統的Mac OS x是，窗口變得膨脹和難使用。 而不是提供酣然的功能和customizability喜歡Linux，窗口相當成為了對面。
要使事態更壞，惡意黑客和犯規推銷者開始開發證明致命對窗口系統的沼澤攻擊。 反應太後，微軟允許安全性問題成為這樣關心一些移居對其他操作系統。 并且誰能責備他們？ 当微軟很少做保護他們，決定似乎相當簡單。
在發布了之後，但為所有它的問題， Windows XP仍然是一相對地可靠操作系統的服務組裝2。 一旦安裝， SP2提供了我們盼望的這种功能和安全，并且，雖然好比它的前輩中的任一個和最後有的道理為企業和個體有寂靜的安全問題，工作的操作系統像。
并且，當XP在它的高度，被決定的微軟投下窗口景色在我們，要求「哇現在是」。 哀傷地，公司沒有意識到」從多數人的嘴出來的唯一的「哇由某事跟隨像， 「真是一crappy操作系統」。
實質上，景色比失去可靠性所有知覺的俏麗的OS是沒什麼更多并且再點燃我得到，當使用XP SP1時的那種心神不安的感覺。 當然，微軟不同意。
根據公司，景色在頭腦裡設計了以安全、好神色和功能。 而不是XP克隆，景色有我們逐漸期望從它的前輩Mac OS x和有用性的美好的神色。 哀傷地，因為我未體驗什麼排序，營銷隊一定錯過了備忘錄。
我們面對它-窗口景色是破爛物在幾乎詞的每感覺。 肯定，它比XP和我喜歡窗口航空接口是更好看，但什麼真正地事關多麼恰當操作系統執行在任務我們問它。 并且到目前為止，它失敗淒慘地。
How many times have you used Vista only to find out that it's basically the same bloated operating system with awkward warnings and crazy dialog boxes? Vista is easily the most annoying operating system I have ever used.
Just last week, I tried to install a Microsoft software package. After going through all the rigmarole of validating my copy and making sure Microsoft knows what I'm doing is legit, the operating system's new User Access Control, which was ostensibly installed to safe guard me, asked me five times if I wanted to install the program and if I had initiated the process.
Once I got through that annoyance, I sat there and waited for the program to install and watched as my brand-new operating system on a high-end PC slowed to a crawl trying to perform a simple task. Of course, that issue isn't just found during installation; the restart times are ridiculous and the chances of getting something done in a reasonable amount of time are all but lost. Simply put, Vista is brutally slow.
And yet, none of these issues are experienced in XP. Aside from being asked once if I want to install something, XP boots up in a jiffy and works just as I had hoped it would.
But in true Microsoft fashion, the company wants to stop licensing Windows XP to OEMs by June 30. According to the company, it's time we move on from XP and join the Vista world. It makes sense from a business standpoint - Microsoft spent millions developing Vista and it wants to cash in on its investment. But what about those of us who don't want to move to the junker? What if we want to stick it out with the tried and true XP?
Even worse, after releasing XP Service Pack 3, I really don't see a reason to switch. SP3 included all of the added security benefits of owning Vista and did so without slowing the OS down or making it annoying to use. In other words, the better OS just got better.
Of course, Microsoft knows the general public can't stand Vista. After trying to deal with companies like Acer and Dell that forced the organization to push the end-of-licensing date back, it was forced to manage retailers that simply didn't want to sell Vista in their stores and businesses that were loath to switch.
In response, the company has already started the propaganda machine for Windows 7 - Vista's follow-up - and told the world just how "special" it will be. But to me, it looks like a desperate move.
Instead of telling us how it will fix Vista and make it a worthwhile product, it's as if Microsoft wants us to believe that the operating system is a bridge to greatness and we should swallow our reservations and walk across that bridge because the pleasure will surely be worth the pain.
What a crock. Instead of wasting our time with hope for the future, Microsoft should keep XP alive until Windows 7 and allow the users to choose which software they want to use. At this point, Microsoft needs to realize that consumers want reliability and hate the thought of being forced into another crappy product. And although monetary concerns are obviously a factor for the company, just how much money will Microsoft lose if people realize how poor of an operating system Vista really is and they switch to competing platforms without ever taking a look back?
Trust me, allowing XP to stay available is good for all parties involved.
