|  Microsoft emails get public revealing issues with Vista SENIOR Microsoft staff complained about misleading advertising and Windows Vista incompatibility issues in a series of embarrassing emails made public during a court case. In the emails, published online by The New York Times, corporate vice president for Windows product management Mike Nash said he "got burned" after purchasing a notebook computer advertised as "Vista Capable" that was incapable of running the full version of the operating system. Even more embarrassingly, Microsoft chief operating officer Jon A Shirley chose not to upgrade one of his computers to Vista after discovering it was not compatible with several of his peripheral devices including a printer and two scanners. Microsoft Ceritified Technical Support for Microsoft Windows vista, Microsoft Windows XP Microsoft staff also discussed a decision to lower Vista’s hardware requirements to encourage sales, with one manager warning the move would result in "a complete tragedy". In one email sent to senior Microsoft staff including general manager for Windows Brad Brooks, Mr Nash said he had wound up with a "$2100 email machine" after buying a notebook that was incapable of running the full version of Windows Vista. "Are we seeing this from a lot of customers?" Mr Nash asked in the email.
