Microsoft admit failures with Vista?

[Clueless]

Oh, wait...this says what I think it says?

Q: You're announcing 100 million licenses (sold) for Vista? And yet reviews have been middling. XP is still available.

A: Windows is probably the most important product in the entire PC industry. Everything we do in terms of supporting touch, new hardware, accessibility has incredible impact. If we don't get the (software driver updates for Vista) done, that makes things complicated for our users. Getting those pieces together (was) fairly complex this year.

Vista is a great product, done very well, amazing new scenarios. We're hard at work in doing the version after Vista. I'm not really talking about a service pack (a collection of updates). You always have those. The really big thing is we'll have a major new version, and all the lessons learned with Vista, we'll take those to heart.

I had vista and hated it. So yeah XP all the way. 64bit xp is even better. Its based off the server 2003 platform so its more stable.
