“Windows Vista 2 allows you to search for apps easily, so if I type ‘Word’, you get, well I got Wordpad in this case, but it’s an easy way to bring your apps to you.”
Of course. I don’t think it’s likely, though. I doubt he just sat down with a video camera to record a review for C|Net and didn’t have a rehearsal. It’s an “objective” review and they put it up there with warts and all. I think that if it was their fault versus the product’s they are reviewing, they would have corrected the mistake and not put that up on the Web at all.
You know what I’m saying? When you read reviews, they’ll tell you that there was a bug when they tried something or that it didn’t work as advertised. They are suppose to do that. If it’s their mistake, they don’t report it. For example, I wouldn’t write a review and say, “Vista has a new search tool that instantly brings up results. I typed in Word and it didn’t find it because I don’t have Word installed.”
Microsoft OS X, errr, Vista, I spontaneously thought of Mac OS X when I saw this video too. (but at ZDNet)
And FINALLY, something at least similar to sudo.
Anyone knows how many apps Vista will break?
Why do MS insist on keeping that archaic start-menu? Ahh, the db filesystem WinFS is not there....
I bet if they switched off all that eye-candy the premium PC wouldn’t be needed.
