Dim Vista

| It did--and it doesn't care.

Finally. An objective (not promotional) review from a major publication. Due
to be released in February 26th.
Everybody is entitled to their opinions. I find that almost all
reviews haven't even begun to touch the surface of Vista. There are
just so many cool things included in it...
I'm looking forward to a review that reviews *everything* new about
the OS, not just somebody that fires it up for a few days and
concludes it's the same as XP.
