Stating "The whole industry is disappointed with Windows Vista," Acer president Gianfranco Lanci also said according to a report, the operating system was riddled with problems and gave users and businesses no reason to buy a new PC. Kind of reminds me of that children's story about the emperor's new clothes, finally someone points out that Microsoft is a little bit naked. Consumers have been putting up with poorly designed MS products for years, it's nice that an industry exec finally had the cojones to say tell like it is. So, Gianfranco Lanci I salute you.
