I just got a letter from Bill Gates:

"Hi,

I saw the petition that people are signing against Windows Vista(tm). As a result we've decided to scrap Vista and stop making operating systems.

Yours,
Bill"


And what did Vista copy from OSX, exactly?

Only the gadget part is a bit OS X, otherwise it's not so terribly alike in graphics. And underneath, it's still windows :p

I don't really know what you mean, by that, but as an accomplished OO programmer, I doubt there's much low-level OO code in Windows. If there is, it ain't done right.

I say there's no point in getting rid of Vista. OS X has to be better than something and it might as well be Vista.
