Review: Windows Vista

Paul Thurrott takes a long look at Vista. “It’s hard to put Windows Vista in perspective. On the one hand, the product has been in development for over five years, which means that Vista had one of the longest development cycles in the 20+ year history of Windows. Paradoxically, Windows Vista is both revolutionary and evolutionary. While it includes modern OS features, such as a new hardware-based graphical user interface, Vista will also feel like familiar territory, for the most part, to anyone that’s already familiar with Windows XP. And Mac advocates can claim, truthfully, that many of Vista’s best features appeared first on Mac OS X, sometimes years ago.”
