Sure it had issues, but XP had more, and look at XP now...

Enough of that though, I'd rather not start an argument. THe Beta should be a great way for them to hopefully approach this release with a more PR friendly launch...
The flame/deification circle happens with every new Windows version but was only really justified once since Win95; when ME was released...
If Windows 7 comes out this year, it means MS is back to the 1OS/2-3years schedule they've been on since Win1.0. The long gap between XP and Vista was due to a complete kernel rewrite.
