          Once again following Apple, down to the default blue desktop background. First few pictures are more like Mac, then the picture of the directory looks like old Windows (98?) again. However the 3d view of "libraries" is innovative. Gadgets on the desktop?--hopefully they hide with a hot key (like Apple Dashboard)

                No, but they have been releasing the computers with desktops set to similar shades of blue abstract image, and displaying the same in advertisements for years. I think Leopard is now advertised with some scene of the cosmos (of which they do own a controlling share 💚).

                  I was reading about it yesterday, there are many reasons why this is the best direction for windows.

                  The ones I like is the doing away with the double buffering letting your video card to do it's job and using the system ram where needed. Resulting in faster graphics, and more stability, not forgetting that the whole OS will have a much smaller Ram footprint and load very much faster. getting rid of all the stupid eye candy Aero themes will also help. They went back to the original concept windows 'Chicago' aka Windows 95, not saying they have devolved but rather simplified the GUI with features one needs and not just bling.

                      Well I hope they give every Vista user a free license for Windows 7 if it actually is better.
