At the risk of feeding such a blatant and obvious troll.
nice presentation
Though in what way does it kill any os that isn't vista?
How will this hollywood style ui aid a typical system user in their daily workload? How does it empower me? What difference does it make to my activity, what technical aspects need to be resolved, the amount of data getting thrown about there requires substantial network capacity, let's see how well it works when several thousand people are simultaneously trying to order the products? Do we just assume that network bandwidth will magically adapt to the demands of this "rich media experience" ?
and also, bearing in mind that your generic corporate pc may have a good cpu but is highly likely to have intel extreme graphics which will "support" this system at a snails pace.
Whenever a marketing drone talks about "rich media" experience the bull detector goes into overdrive, it's a yawnsome phrase that i've heard repeated over the years that ultimately demonstrates nothing other than a perceived revenue stream that you might want to impress some investors with.
And then there's the offensive level of drm, Protected Audio Path? yeah.. sounds like PAP doesn't it, and document rights management? How funny will it be when someone revokes the access to your private data and your computer refuses to allow you to use it, this crack WILL occur.
And what the hell is the justification for this?
fun microsoft drmSorry but I enjoy the ownership and control of my data, and I can manage that with any os (including current versions of windows), I will most likely be migrating seriously to linux in the near future, it's possible I may get a mac or two, but I certainly have no desire or necessity for vista, it offers me nothing that XP or 2K isn't good enough to do already.
And the security is still persistently useless. With the mentality of hiding security flaws from the public until a patch is constructed it's no suprise there's already so many compromised machines out there, this will continue to occur with vista.
I only really keep windows for games these days, I personally wouldn't trust it with anything serious.
Feel free to tell me how crap linux and everything else is, I find it performs the tasks I require of it. And that's all that's required of a tool, which is what a computer is.
And I quite like my amigas too.
I'm happy for you that vista provides you fullfillment in your life but its worth absolutely nothing to me and indeed, most of the members of this website.
