Microsoft has joined in as the latest to mock the iPhone 4 calling it Apple's Vista, according to a Computer World report.

"It looks like the iPhone 4 might be their Vista, and I'm okay with that," said Kevin Turner, Microsoft's chief operating officer, in a keynote speech at Microsoft's Worldwide Partner Conference.

"One of the things I want to make sure you know today is that you're going to be able to use a Windows Phone 7 and not have to worry about how you're holding it to make a phone call," he said earlier in his talk.

While the comparison between Vista and the iPhone 4 is hardly similar, it is clear that Apple must act now to prevent any further bad publicity.

Who is Microsoft? Are they the ones that continue to push their vaporware? Are they the one's that have a BLUE screen of death? Are they the ones with the loser Tablet, smartphones, several renditions of Windows, a loser MP3 device, and a string of loud mouthed LOSERS? Is THAT the Microsoft being quoted?

So microsoft is comparing iphone4 to vista?.. Im sure apple will do something to rectify the glitch in iphone4... But did microsoft give free or even subsidised upgrade from vista to win7 to those who suffered through their vista??

Not hardly a comparison, MS Vista was a complete debacle that didn't sell well & Windows 7 is basically an imitation of Leopard and prior iterations of the Mac OS which is why MS got it right this time (BECAUSE THEY CLONED THEIR OS FROM APPLE'S)... but what I will give MS is that Bill Gates is a much nicer person than either Jobs or Ballmer, you see guys, you can get a point across without all the profanity.
