Top 10 reasons for creating Windows Vista:

10. Too many 3rd party apps made to modify the look of Windows XP. Can't buy out, humiliate, or imtimidate them all, so might as well make it "built in" to the OS itself. Hey, it worked against Netscape.
9. Needed more puzzling name than "XP."
8. Tired of supporting Windows 2000, need an excuse to stop.
7. Getting another $150 from everybody in the world would really tick off Warren Buffett.
6. Create a Bill Gates clone to contend with all the Walton clones.
5. Getting another $750 from everybody in the world to replace the now-incompatible software would allow you to make your own spaceship like Richard Branson's.
4. You could email the Sultan of Brunei that he has just been Punk'd.
3. Won't need to issue XP SP3.
2. Current patches make XP wayyyyy too secure.
1. Needed a new way to get money from playing Solitaire in "Vegas" mode while online.
