Surely a large part of this driver problem is that hardware manufacturers finally had their trust in Microsoft destroyed by the Zune debacle .
The MS emails reveal that few manufacturers believed that MS would ship an unfinished , untested OS . But then they're trying to ship an unfinished , untested file format "standard" at the moment .
In the case of Vista , MS has paid the price of it's grossly uncooperative behaviour (hidden hooks and deliberately incomplete documentation) .
In the case of Oxmeal we're all paying the price of it's grossly uncooperative behaviour (hidden hooks and deliberately incomplete documentation) .
Unfortunately they've also wrecked the world's standard setting mechanism at the same time .
As others have pointed out , blaming others having taken their money and given them certficates is pretty low behaviour .
