Reboot bug fixed, but Vista's reputation is broken

It is sad that Microsoft can't seem to do anything right when it comes to Vista. Microsoft fixed a bug that caused the prerequisite Vista Servicing Stack Update to sometimes have Vista reboot endlessly.

Good that the bug is gone, and maybe it was a rare bug as Microsoft claims, but the underlying problem is that Vista is so bloated. A little less complication for a little more perfection would have been a good trade-off. Perhaps it's too late. Vista is the Edsel of the operating system world.
