I somehow ended up with a machine with Windows Vista on it. Ok, it was a mistake. I know that now.

When you get a new machine, one thing you have to do is go back and reinstall all those things that make a machine usable. Since I work on computer science research, I occasionally come across a postscript file that I have to view. Naturally Windows does not come with a program to view these, so just for laughs I clicked on the thing that is supposed to look up programs to view postscript files. Apparently nobody at Microsoft has ever heard of ghostview. Their suggestion is to use CorelDraw or Microsoft Visio. Yeah right – perfect matches to Vista.
