Mary Jo Foley: “If you’re Microsoft — especially a member of the Vista team — there’s no way you can help but gloat. Very few Softies or their loyal followers are gloating publicly. But there’s no way they aren’t enjoying this turning of the tables.”

Now this is just ridiculous. Softies are gloating because Leopard is as buggy as Vista, if not worse? I’m sure Mary Jo’s article is very much tongue-in-cheek, but reading some of the MS fanboys’ blogs linked by Dave Winer, it’s no doubt that they are damn serious about it: they seem to be glad that Vista has reached parity with OS X not by virtue of becoming less obnoxious, but by virtue of Leopard being bad.

And so they are happy, while everyone’s life—or at least the life of everyone who upgraded to either Vista or Leopard—is just a little more miserable.
