Good to see that they got this done at last. OS X had spotlight for what, 7 years?
- sp332 14y agoIt's not really about search. If you had a weather app installed already, Vista and 7 would do the same. But I guess it's nice that there's a built-in weather app now?
- bornhuetter 14y agoIts been in Windows since Vista.
- pedalpete 14y agoUnfortunately it was always slow in Vista, and not as well implemented as Spotlight. To me, spotlight is the shining light of my mac. Is the Win8 search faster and does it have a better design? I haven't heard anything about it.
- bornhuetter 14y agoIt works better in Win 7 than Vista, but still not as good as OSX or Unity. The Windows 8 version looks nice, but I don't know yet how good the final version is. If it works well it will probably make people like the new full screen start menu a lot more.
