I just finished reading Newsweek's interview of Bill Gates over at MSNBC.com about the release of Vista. It was funny how defensive Gates became whenever Steven Levy brought up Mac OS X (although not mentioned by name), or Apple. My favorite part is when Levy says to Gates, "In many of the Vista reviews, even the positive ones, people note that some Vista features are already in the Mac operating system".
Microsoft really painted themselves in a corner with Vista, because one of the first things people notice is how they copied Aqua from Mac OS X. My brother is employed as a computer repair tech, & I laughed the other night when he refered to Vista's theme as Aqua. Even if Gates refuses to accept that some of Mac OS X's features have been copied in Windows, most people can easily see where it has.
