The only thing 98 had going for it was an open USB buffer. Appart from that it had abot 100 times the the amount of patches Vista has and in a world where security is or has become so nessesary it just wouldn't cut it in the computer world of today.
You have to remember that operating systems arenot designed for our home computers the are largely written to handle the network systems of companies and are built around the premise that they will be maintained by system specialists who know what they are doing and not fiddled with by questionable home know it all who in most cases know very little.
Vista was probably the first Operating system written for home computers and not primarilly designed for industry. The increased security and system lock down was done for that reason.
I don't think Chris is making it personal I think he is only stating the sentiments you seem to imply or impart on everything that anyone posts about a new purchase or new item. Try to be a bit more positive.
