It seems that from its inception, Vista has received generous amounts of negative criticism in regards to numerous aspects of the new operating system. There have been lots of reports that new drivers installed in Vista, aren't functioning properly. The Vista interface, also generally runs slow unless additional RAM is purchased. These kind of problems make PC users cringe at there fellow Mac users, whose machines appear to flawlessly perform, day after day.
One of the main concerns about Vista is its security. Recently, the Australian company; PC Tools, released figures which suggested that Vista was just as vulnerable to security threats as its predecessors. This information is based on analysis of 1,513,502 machines running Windows in PC Tool's ThreatFire user base. 190,692 machines were running Vista, and 58,000 of these machines were compromised by at least one piece of malware over a 6 month period. PC Tools is known for its Spyware Doctor software which is available as a free download at http://www.pctools.com.
