Apparently the editorial staff at InfoWorld thinks so.  They're running 
a Save XP petition:

<http://weblog.infoworld.com/save-xp/archives/2008/01/save_windows_xp.html>

So far they have more than 200,000 signatures, and counting.

I signed it.  If nothing else, it adds to the public embarassment that 
is the whole Vista debacle.


But even that doesn't compare to the scathing emails from a major 
corporation which were leaked to the public, with angry comments about 
missing device drivers in Vista, incompatible formats, poor performance, 
and more.

And those emails were from high-ranking Microsoft execs:

They Criticized Vista. And They Should Know.

I know 2008 isn't even half over, but in my book that one wins Best 
Computer Industry Article award for the year.
