ZDNet Supplied (www.zdnet.com.au other_l3) Obviously there will be changes and doesn't really say much about " Whats under the Bonnet" But if anyone was hoping for a radical change in looks from Vista these pic's so far will disappoint.	wainuitech (129)
715629	2008-10-28 23:45:00	They muffed it. They shouldn't be hiding programs running in the background by removing them from the taskbar, That sort of thinking is half the problem with Windows. They should be stopping all programs from running on start-up unless configured to do so by the user (rather then the program). Pretty early for a fail but there ya go. Idiots. They shouldn't be allowed to design as OS, I could fix their entire OS line with one sheet of paper and a pen.	Metla (12)

I don't care how it looks. I care how it runs and what its doing. VERY very true :thumbs: But I know a lot of people complained that how it looks and functions were not in the same place as XP or where they are used to being. Take Office 07 - the ribbon - some hate it some like it. Can you see the "fun" with the touch Screen - Kids with sticky greasy fingers moving things all over the place - the state of the screen ofter a while :D	wainuitech (129)

715635	2008-10-29 07:06:00	All I care about is the looks and whether it can run Firefox or not. :p I Was a bit disappointed that by default you couldn't change the task bar color in Vista, had quite a few people ask me how to do it, I see on windows 7 pictures its a different color to the standard black. For some reason I like the royale blue theme they have for windows media centre - so now I got that on Vista after fliddling about - just for something different.	wainuitech (129)

Looks is a completely brainless way to choose something. With your specs, what have you got to skite about? Macs can equal if not better that too you know. MAC * One 2.8GHZ Quad-Core Intel Xeon * Two 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon * Two 3.0GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro systems support up to 32GB of 800MHz DDR2 * 2GB (2x1GB) * 4GB (4x1GB) * 8GB (4x2GB) * 16GB (4x4GB) * 16GB (8x2GB) * 32GB (8x4GB) * 320GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s * 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s * 750GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s * 300GB 15,000-rpm SAS * 1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s * ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB * 2 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB * 3 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB * 4 x ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB * NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB * NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 1.5GB * Apple Cinema Display (20" flat panel) * Apple Cinema HD Display (23" flat panel) * Apple Cinema HD Display (30" flat panel) Can't say I've seen too many PC boards supporting 32Gb RAM yet.	pctek (84)
