Vista Causes DELL Customer Revolt

Vista, the Ho Hum Version

This is hilarious. Apparently, DELL customers got tired of printers and other peripherals not working with Windows Vista on their shiny new DELL computers. They’ve demanded that DELL stop pre-loading Vista on new PCs, and instead they want them to put the most functional version of Windows XP they can find! Who would have thought we would see customers asking that the latest version of an operating system NOT be included on a new computer!

    Hi Jason,

    Just dropping by to clarify that Dell, thanks to our customer feedback site http://www.dellideastorm.com, is now giving consumer customers the *choice* of Vista or XP.

    Thanks for clarifying, John!

    (It’s still funny though) 🙂
