MS is hpoing to make this the next XP I guess...
Win ME was a flop after Win 2000, but XP patched things up.
Vista now is a flop after XP.
so I guess MS is hoping that Windows 7 will patch things up.

But I doubt the damage already done can be neutralised.

Vista now is a flop after XP.
Why Windows Me deserves more respect

and also i really dont think vista is a flop, iv spoken to a lot of electronic retailer store attendants as to what is the vista's acceptance and theyv all said that ppl look for vista laptops and desktops, vista's not so good and highly critisized system requirements have become a very very good system benchmark, now ppl dont say pls tell me what is a good config but they simply say i want a system that can run vista smoothly

@iMav- Exactly! ME introduced new features which are now a standard in Windows. System Restore is the biggest example of it. How it saved many people from those buggy drivers.

@Ecko- Well Linux is also following Windows & OS X. Compiz fusion and all that also need better hardware just like Aero(yeah aero has higher requirements). Simplicity makes life easy. :)

pal here am enjoyin compiz fusion with 845 chipset, pentium 2.4GHz and 512RAM :D and that too on crappy intel gfx

I cant even think abt aero to run on this configuration, tried but end up with lack of driver support.

Well if you guys have seen the post correctly then that's what I've written. "Aero HAS higher requirements than Compiz!"
But you can't expect Compiz to run on an old machine which runs 98 :p

Stop posting such comments.
Why? Isn't linux following Windows & Mac in making it more user friendly in terms of GUI?

The news companies have mis-represented facts by combining 2 statements out of context, imo ! Windows 7 Release Date : All Smoke, No Fire !

^That seems to be much better :). They would be killing off Vista if they come out with a new product without having Vista run its life.
