Vista has garnered a plethora of bad press – not a commiseration - and continues to be in the news for all the wrong reasons. Yet another survey has discovered yet another Vista failure. Although it is common knowledge that Vista has to its credit an abysmally dismal adoption rate, a survey by Devil Mountain Software has found that even the ones with Vista are prone to downgrading.
Around 35% of users with Vista-capable PCs have been downgraded to XP by their masters themselves or manufacturers, according to the survey that covered 3,000 computers. This data was collected in the past 6 months, and so, is very recent. Need we say more? A survey is worth a thousand words!
