Yes, that's exactly what you said - I quote you: 'Most of the issues with Vista were due to Apple's very clever marketing of "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC"'.
And, like I said, if Vista had been a great product, Apple would have had nothing to work against.
The blame for Vista's poor reception lies squarely with Microsoft. Trying to blame Apple for Microsoft's shortcomings is dumb.
>Nope. Not what I said at all. I said they capitalized on that reputation, extrapolated it, and made it sound much worse than it was. Most people bought into Apple's marketing about how bad it was rather than the truth. Apple's marketing was genius.

>>Are you really trying to say Vista got/has a bad rep because of Apple marketing? That's quite breathtaking revisionism.
