<Sheesh> An MVP gets little more than a pat on the back and I don't know any that are die-hard MS advocates. We are /only/ here to help the users, and feel the same frustrations.

Thank you for your reply. The tough economy hit everyone I think.
Pocketbooks are tight. I know that I really do not matter to a huge
corporation like Microsoft or to yourself. I am just one consumer, and as a
consumer I have choices when I buy and I spend money and tell others of my
experience, so I do matter.
Now my question was to MS and you being an MVP are somehow affiliated with
Microsoft. So I think the bottom line is money. Microsoft spends a huge
amount on advertising to knock off Google, and I am sure spent money creating
and developing the new OS Windows 7.
I am sure Microsoft wants the consumer to buy Windows 7, preferrably on Oct
22nd when it comes out for what I understand is around a price tag of $119
never mind if I use XP Or Vista. Microsoft wants the same thing they want the
consumers money. So if they want this, then they need to convince the
consumer to spend the money. They need to convince us that 7 is better.
So I ask, and from a Microsoft affiliate and I get a curt answer and I ask
about two programs that are Windows programs, Microsoft programs and you say
they are "crapware". You put down your own company. Myself I will save my
money for something else than buying an upgrade to 7. If Microsoft is
displeased they should try harder to woo potential consumers.
Best Regards,
Kaja

You'll be able to install Windows Live Photo Gallery and any other Windows
