To avoid having 8573 stories related to Vista atop one another, this item groups some of them. Fortune: "After five years in development, Microsoft's new operating system is finally about to hit the street. Is it a keeper? Fortune's Peter Lewis takes it for a test drive." eWeek: "Some have taken exception with Vista's permission-asking proclivity, but it may be that we've just become too cavalier about making fundamental changes to our systems." eWeek: "We check out the first systems bundling Microsoft's newest OS and tell you what you will, and will not, be getting with Vista." Click read more for, well, more items. This item will probably be updated regularly.

And PNG is better (smaller) than GIF for those same images.
The thing is, PNG transparency wasn't supported by IE until IE7, making it non-viable for most.
The only thing GIF can do that PNG can't is animation, and those GIFs usually appear as animated ads.
