You have to admit a thirty minute delay is pretty funny

Subject: Important Vista Announcement

Dear Partner,

We would like to give you some advanced warning with regard to the installation of Windows Vista.
When you or the end user installs the preloaded Microsoft Vista operating system on an Acer notebook computer you will discover that at the first boot the loading delay can be over 30 minutes until the system becomes fully operational. Please do not worry, as during this time the installation runs normally and no action is required!

Therefore please do not to stop the operation or turn off the computer when you see a blank or blue screen even if it lasts for some minutes, as this is part of standard procedure at the first boot of Windows Vista.
From the second time Vista will boot normally.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Kind regards,

Acer UK Marketing

There wasnt edited anything. But some of the admins did a replace string on "V i s t a" with no spaces.
I thus edited most posts to not mess up the forum with such lame stuff.
