decided to stay away from Macs. Do you have a problem understanding, is
that why you use a Mac.

Sorry. We forgot that Vista is troublefree. And buying a new computer
days before Windows 7 comes out is the smartest move ever. Make sure
you or he installs that Windows 7 upgrade disk right on top of Vista.

He didn't prevent a Mac sale by showing the victim CSMS.

He prevented the guy from knowing the truth about Vista
by steering the victim away from a Windows NG.
