In a long introduction of the article, Koroush Ghazi sets the relative points that most problems of Vista result from people who are either uninformed, uninstructed or financially motivated. He also mentions that Windows XP experienced the same reaction when it appeared. People have read a lot of absurd, sensationalist and opinion-laded pro- and anti-Vista articles for far too long. But this article concerning Windows Vista is absolutely different.
It doesn't matter whether you use Vista or not. This article does something that most of the others don't: it takes an objective and new glance at the present state of Vista, with a circle of practical reasons, facts, specific instances and competent thoughts directly applied to exposing many myths and FUD people have been choking on the past year. Therefore, for those of you still discussing whether to make the switch from XP, for those of you who wish to abandon Vista and move back to XP, for those of you who used Vista a while ago and who speculate if it's worth to use it again now. This article puts things objectively with the latest facts.
This article is not attempting to make you believe that Vista is the best or worst thing since sliced bread. Also, it is not attempting to compel you to think a particular way by taking liberties with the truth only to prove a point. Moreover, it is not trying to emphasize how ingenious and mordantly sarcastic Koroush Ghazi can be. Lastly and most certainly this article is not trying to astonish you with technical jargon.

In conclusion, the article provides needful information so that you may get to understand better what Vista is doing and why, and how you may change it to satisfy your tastes.
