Forbes takes a look at Vista, and writes: "More than five years in the making, more than 50 million lines of code. The result? A vista slightly more inspiring than the one over the town dump. The new slogan is: 'The Wow Starts Now', and Microsoft touts new features, many filched shamelessly from Apple's Macintosh. But as with every previous version, there's no wow here, not even in ironic quotes. Vista is at best mildly annoying and at worst makes you want to rush to Redmond, Wash. and rip somebody's liver out." They also look at Office 2007.

Not yet but I read somewhere that a rumor leaked that the next Zune is going to be a 4G, wireless phone a lot like the iPhone and that it's been in the works for a while now.
*shrug*
Doesn't seem too far fetched with everyone an their mother *now* announcing iPhone like devices, 2008 is going to be a crazy portable-device year.

MS had to come out with Zune2 annoncement after the Zune leader was sacked, retried, or retired, whatever.
Can you imagine the BS that the Zune Leader had to feed to Ballmer for the guy to keep his job as the leader of the Zune project without having chairs thrown at him for what was obviously a long time, to get out such an inferior iPod copy?
Sheesh, it is was not like Apple didn't give fair warning to everyone.
