Furthermore, with only minor changes, WindowBlinds and MS Visual Style (WindowsXP or Vista) themes can be converted to the SkyOS theme format. Additionally, the Viewer (file browsing application) has a new feature called 'NavigationView', which makes it possible to possible to navigate to your devices and manage files easier and faster.

When its released the following things are going to be said about it. I'll bet anyone a subscription to OSNews we'll see comments on the day it's released that say:

"Why should I have to pay for this when Linux is free?"
"Looks nice, but doesn't have any apps."
"How do they intended to compete against MS/Apple/Ubuntu?"

Get off it people. It'll be released when its ready.

Are you saying these are NOT legitimate questions?

No, I'm saying for all the hue cry people are putting up about the long beta cycle that once it is released, this is what they'll complain about next. People seem to want to find something to complain about with SkyOS no matter what happens.
