It's not really years away. It's basically a re-branding of Vista with some tweaks thrown in. Microsoft has even stated they are really pushing to get it out the door since so many people have developed a strange aversion to the word "Vista".
- robak 18y agolike with communistic propaganda - people are having weird problems not a political system that doesn't work. Or as Easter Germany chief of communist party said in the 50s - "The Party is really disappointed with the people in this country". If M$ is disappointed with their customers reactions to their flaky products - let M$ got to hell.
- shiranaihito 18y agoYou're right, I should have realized we won't have to wait for years for it. Microsoft certainly is in a bit of a hurry. But since it's going to be a re-branding of Vista, why should anyone - especially HN - be excited about it? It bothers me in general that hackers, 'morally enlightened' people, are excitedly discussing Microsoft, a morally corrupt company, and their offerings. Remember that thing where Microsoft had bribed countries/companies to vote for OOXML to get it ratified by ISO? - Maybe a month after that, it was like it never even happened. Hackers were talking about being interviewed by Microsoft, excited about a chance to work there, and so on.. </rambling>
