The Mojave Experiment is an attempt by Microsoft to show that if people don’t know they are running Vista, they like it. Essentially, people are given an overview of a “new” operating system called Mojave, and then given a brief chance to try it. Afterwards they are told it’s Vista, and they say things like “Wow! This is much better than I thought it would be.” Sheesh. How shallow do they think we are?

Here’s the thing: Vista looks shiny, and if you get told that it runs all your old programs but gives you the security you need, then of course you’re going to like it. But if you actually installed that OS on the home machines of all those noobs, and made them live through the constant, irritating security prompts, crashes, and incompatibilities, I’m guessing that it wouldn’t take long for reality to set in and the average rating for Vista of 4.5 out of 10 to once again be the norm.

God, I’m glad my real computers are macintoshes.
