Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y Paul Thurrot (there he is again) compares Vista Beta 1 to Tiger: "For Windows enthusiasts, Windows Vista Beta 1 is a much-needed demonstration that Microsoft can still churn out valuable Windows releases, after years of doubt. For Mac OS X users, however, Windows Vista Beta 1 engenders a sense of deja vu. Isn't a lot of this stuff already in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger?"

That line alone... about the redundancy department... LOL... never thought of that one!

I feel that Vista will be a headage to many...
You will need to learn the new ways at doing things, like those small chages they make for no reason... like plasing the hardware manayer in diferent plases... that one been a realy small change (same window in 2000 and XP but exchagig the position of said button)... to the extreme ones... were they make you dig your system for a simple setup that once you knew... not that it might be better on other OSs.

Microsoft don't mantain an standard from one OS to the next... moving thing for no aparent reason, breaking your knowlege of the system, the reason why many don't jump to the best thing, that and the hardware requirements... Mny still use The_Hell-98 or worst... MELENIUM ...

Eider way... I mess to much with linux to even care about those OSs... the only thing been, I am an A+ technician... meaning I need to know of all the diferent ways of doing the same thing on those windows... A headdage I tell you!
