Right on cue–the Beastmaster must have read about the coinage of “Vistaster” as a term of art–the Borg makes scary Steve Sinofsky available to house stenographer Ina Fried for an “interview” on Windows 7.

Sinofsky’s so cute. He thinks he’s raised secrecy to an art form. Funny thing is, if we actually wanted to know anything about this hideous Son of Vista, we’d know it by now.

Moshe says if you ever want to freak this guy out, just walk by his office and let your coffee slosh around in the cup. He’ll be so fixated on possible spillage that he’ll be completely off his game. For hours. Imagine how guy like that must feel about cleaning up after the Vista elephant.

Meanwhile, the lower-ranking Vistatards, all evidence to the contrary, are busy declaring victory on their little blog.

“The business results speak for themselves,” types designated Vistatard Chris Flores. More than 140 million Windows Vista licenses sold etc etc etc. Unclear how many are actually in use.
