Vista was supose to be the operating system with the overhaul of the interface design, security, and file system. Instead it is nothing like that. It has a semi 3d interface with alot of transperancy, a tiny bit better security, and the same old NTFS file system.
Now, instead of Vista it will be Vienna that gets WinFS, a complete security overhaul, and a differtent UI design. I was looking forward to Vista only for WinFS back when Microsoft said Vista would have it. But now it will be released seperately down the road and come built in on Vienna. The interface is going to be completely changed. They're getting rid of the start menu and the explorer shell. That means no more taskbar. They're suposedly looking into using something like the dock in OSX, heh. The security will be largely upgraded as well. Basicly all software will run in a sandbox. So if any bad code tries to run it's stuck in that sandbox and cannot access the OS. Which was also supose to be in Vista, wasn't it? But now it too is not. Seeing a pattern here? To me, Vista is nothing more than another Windows ME. A previous design with added eye candy and minimal features. The real upgrade will be afterwards. =/ Really.. Vista just comes off as a 'hey we're not done with the REAL OS so have this to hold you over'. Jam it back in, in the dark.
Stuff goes here~
