New OSes should also be able to accomodate older hardware as well. After all for an OS to be successful it should be installed on as many machines as possible.... To force a customer to upgrade their entire system to suit the OS seems more like Apple than Microsoft.

The problem lies in the millions of old computers that will go into the landfill because they won't run on Windows Vista. If you don't see a problem in that you need to take a visit to one of the "recycling centers" for PC material in China Pakistan, or India...
