If NVIDIA put a label saying "Crysis ready" meaning the game, and the game did not run fast enough then people would have every right to ask for money back.

Again, "Windows Vista Capable" doesn't mean "Windows Aero". So why hold one logo certification to a higher standard than another?

If Aero is a key default feature of Vista and label says "Vista ready", then Aero should be expected to work - you might as well argue that Windows can run in 640x480 black and white mode, so even 5 years old machine can run it fine, but clearly in this case it was inferred that new PCs bought with label "Vista ready" will run most advertised features of Vista well.

Vista Ready is a different logo certification than Windows Vista Capable.

Here is the logo certification.

[microsoft.com...]

Windows Vista Capable is minimum performance specs to run windows vista.

Windows Vista Premium capable includes all of the premium features.

There is no case here folks.

I have little doubt that Microsoft will settle this lawsuit because they would surely lose it - from all the lawsuits flying around these days this one is probably one of the most legitimate.

Hardly a legitimate case when the logo program is tiered based upon the tiered versions of Vista.
