As far as I know, Windows XP was also buggy and far from a perfect operating system until the release of SP2. And even its relatively modest system requirements, compared to which Vista's requirements seem simply terrible, make people choose the older XP (although, I don't deny that in some cases this can be a decisive and quite objective factor). It will be interesting to see what happens when Windows 7 is released, but if we have to wait a long time, I think Vista has a good chance of becoming the most popular OS on home PCs.
O God of Earth and Altar, Bow down and hear our cry, Our earthly rulers falter, Our people drift and die, The walls of gold entomb us, The swords of scorn divide, Take not thy thunder from us, Take away our pride.
