The info I get from Leo Laporte says that Windows Vista wasn't bad in itself, the user experience was bad because of some stupid design decisions (supposedly they made parts (the UAC??) of it deliberately annoying, I no longer remember the reasoning), but it was better on security, etc. The part that everyone remembered though was the really annoying part and skipped everything else that was really good (from a security standpoint).
