This will be a real test of Microsoft's power. It might be just the boost
Linux needs to go mainstream in a big way.

And you know Apple loves it.


Chuckle Yep!

One thing my sister in law says, is "they tried to make Vista look like the
Apple OS's. If I had wanted that, I would have gotten a Mac!"

If it worked like an Apple, that would be cool.
Superficially steeling the Apple styling isn't worth much.

Oddly, we've had to do darn little as a software manufacturer
to go form Windows 95 to NT to 2000 to XP (other than picking
up NEW features). Vista broke that. I had to task two guys
for a few weeks fixing things up. It's not just us that's
running into the problem.

Lose developer support and you're done.

Just wait until the recording industry trade group decides they don't
like your audio and/or video card and tells MS to enforce the terms of
their agreement and turn off the drivers for your particular card.
