Shipping Seven vs New York Times

The mysterious Shipping Seven blogger has seen fit to have a go at a recent New York Times article bashing Windows. Randall Stross suggests that Windows has code from the 1970s in it and it's just too big and clumsy to be useful in the future.

Shipping Seven guy has a few comments about various statements, some of which are just plain wrong, from the article. Of course that's all irrelevant seeing as plenty of people read NYT and will believe what's written there.

While we're talking Windows I'd just like to say that I use Vista x64 at home and at work and have had zero problems with it. I assume those who keep bitching about it either haven't got enough RAM or just haven't used it. ...and if you want to start sooking about having to get more RAM you can pick up 2GB of DDR2 for around $40 now.
