Our primary interest in Vista is being able to use Vista Speech.
Unfortunately, many of the serious problems with Vista Speech are still
uncorrected in Beta 2. These are detailed in a lengthy report that is
being sent to the Speech Group. The most serious limitation of Vista
Speech is, unfortunately, poor recognition accuracy compared with the
current industry leader, NaturallySpeaking.
Vista itself has been much improved compared with the 5308 build, but I
still think that it has many very poorly designed user interfaces, it is
a huge and unwieldy operating system, and the security functions appear
to have little value other than that of thoroughly annoying and wasting
the time of the users.
I can't see that Vista in its current incarnation has any advantage over
XP and it has many major limitations. I hope that it will not prove to
be another disaster like that of Windows Me.
