Microsoft has admitted that Windows Vista was a “less good” of a product for Microsoft. Personally, I really love Vista. It was superior to Windows XP, and Windows 7 is superior to Vista. That’s how it is supposed to be.
“What people underestimate is the importance of good or bad products,” said Songhurst. “And sometimes your products are good, sometimes the products are bad. And I think Vista was a less good product for Microsoft.”
