Former PC Magazine editor-in-chief expresses disappointment on Windows VistaDeparting PC Magazine editor-in-chief, Jim Louderback chose to express his disappointment with Windows Vista as he passed the torch to Lance Ulanoff, new editor-in-chief.  

Louderback has left PC Magazine to become CEO of Revision3, an Internet television network focused on developing programming for on-demand generation.

Louderback told macnn that he is tired of Vista’s broken features, and that he may even switch to Linux moving forward.

“The upshot is that even after nine months, Vista just ain’t cutting it. I definitely gave Microsoft too much of a free pass on this operating system: I expected it to get the kinks worked out more quickly. Boy, was I fooled! If Microsoft can’t get Vista working, I might just do the unthinkable: I might move to Linux.”

He listed some buggy features in Vista such as sleep mode, lack of drivers, and unreliable networking. Lourderback even observed his Windows XP machines run faster than Vista in many areas.

Despite leaving PC Magazine as an editor-in-chief, he disclosed that he will continue to write a column for the magazine.

He expects Ulanoff to continue to deliver strong, engaging and captivating content. Under Ulanoff leadership, he predicts the magazine will be even better that it is today.
