Google Complains About Microsoft's Vista

Isn't this funny? Google complains about Windows Vista. Apparently, Google states that Vista is hampering desktop search applications, like their Google Desktop. So they have filed a lawsuit against Microsoft. I really cannot imagine being Microsoft with all these lawsuits. It's no wondered they turn out mediocre products. Their time and money is being spent in lawyer services!
If you are thinking of going with Vista, it doesn't beat out Windows XP and there are still many drivers that are not yet available for it. I'm sure in time it will be a better operating system, but for now, it's got some issues. I know I been there and done that. Wasn't fun, needed drivers and was told sure later this year. Not cool!

"SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Internet search leader Google Inc. is trying to convince federal and state authorities that Microsoft Corp.'s Vista operating system is stifling competition as the high-tech heavyweights wrestle for the allegiance of personal computer users.

In a 49-page document filed April 18 with the U.S. Justice Department and state attorneys general, Google alleged that the latest version of Microsoft's Windows operating system impairs the performance of "desktop search" programs that find data stored on a computer's hard drive.

The Vista operating system, which became widely available in January, includes a desktop search function that competes with a free program Google introduced in 2004. Several other companies also offer desktop search applications."
