Yeah, their servers surely must be running Vista... Actually, I think Vista has gotten bad press for no reason. In my experience, it's just as stable as 7 is. Sure, it is a bit more sluggish but that's all. I love the colour scheme of the Virgin Racing car. The "CLEAR shampoo" ad made me laugh a bit, though ;D

Vista is a POS, it is a skip over system for IT knowledgable people. Microsoft method, release a good system, then a crappy one in the middle, then another good one. 98-2000-XP, Xp-Vista-Win7. Next one will be a POS, skip over it. The middle one is a combination of the old and their new ideas, more of a testing ground than a system actually built to be functional. I went from from XP to a dual boot of vista and 7 alpha and the alpha of 7 was more stable than vista.

I watched the Mclaren MP4-25 launch last week and it worked fine yet Virgin who have dealing in internet service couldn' even achive a live feed. Dosen't look go for their future. "Car unable to access track network" should be on their cars.

Virgin car is so dam hot!! I think this year its going to be paint wars!! the 2010 F1 cars are so dam ugly that they decided to make the paint gorgeous. Just imagine 2006 cars with these kind of paints! that would have been awesome!
