Wow...Microsoft really copied every aspect. I love it though how all the Windows Fans are raving about the new features, when we have had them for a year.
Maybe Gates and Jobs are best of friends and shared the source code with each other. I guess it is possible, no lawsuits yet.
If I recall, the only way to get Windows Media Center is to buy a new PC.vniow said:

Nope. You can buy OEM Media Center Edition from almost any vendor without the need to buy new hardware. MS changed their 'System Builders Agreement' to allow for enthusiasts to buy it legally.
I bought MCE05 from NewEgg for my MBP.

You are crazy. Spotlight is so cool, I love it! And compared to MS's current meta data searcher in its current OS, it is lightyears ahead. Compare Leapard's searcher with Vista's and see the difference!
So, at one time I was right, right?treblah said:Nope. You can buy OEM Media Center Edition from almost any vendor without the need to buy new hardware. MS changed their 'System Builders Agreement' to allow for enthusiasts to buy it legally.

Man, that video just showed everything that Vista had (in Mac OS X). And remember, only Vista Ultimate will have all these features. There will be six editions of it (all cr*p). I never hope Apple splits Mac OS X into seperate editions. Every mac user is just used to having the best.

Remember the old, old days when the first Mac came out with its icons and mouse. PC users said it was a toy, then Win95 came out with the same type GUI and Apple went after MS because it was a great interface and MS knew it..Andy said:
MS is still way behind when it comes to aesthetics. Win95 thru XP were just softer, more colorful versions of the prior OS, aesthetically speaking.
I dont really care becasue I will not be upgrading to Vista becasue XP supports all of my need however, if Leapord does not allow me to dual boot, (because I dont want to have 2 OS's running at the same time), then I will not be upgrading to that either.
...Wrong... Windows 2 copied off of System 7, Jobs gave Bill a Macintosh to work on and "devlop" software for it, when instead all he did was steal the GUI and call it his own. Then again Apple did take it from Xerox but Xerox knew this was going on.wxboss said:
