Quote of the day: Vista beta more for 'bitheads'

Microsoft's Jim Allchin, the group vice president managing all Windows development work, told CNET News.com that the Beta 1 of Vista, released Wednesday, "isn't really for even tech enthusiasts." They'll be more interested in Beta 2, he said.

"This beta is to test out some of the capabilities that we've got, if you will, in the plumbing...Beta 1 is not what I would call deeply interesting unless you are a real bithead." Click here for the full interview.

Sometimes we get tired of pesimistic crap from people who can't do any thing about it any better but just like to complain ....usually they are to ignorant of the reality of all or they are so wrapped up in their own bull they can't say anything constructive.
