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. |

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. |
