In the short term this will be a good thing.
Aero will make the desktop look like a video game and make life a little
easier for graphic designers who want to make their applications look real
good.
But in terms of 3d effects, there is little reason or utility in them.

And then doing what? Trying to figure out how big the parameter zapf
should be? Or trying to figure out how many "happy meals" should be
included?
Both of these parameters I found in Linux config files.

Registry problems? I've been running windows for 12 years and never had
one.
No one else I know has had any either.

Neither of us can say as Vista is not in production yet.
But we do know where Vista will be in 5 years - on everyone's machine.
Except perhaps .02% of the public who have low enough self esteem to run
Linux.
Linux is for losers.
