Hi, We have been seeing Windows Vista Screenshots and from that we can take a look at the new GUI for Windows. Its called Aero. But i believe it looks more like Linux. Dont you think so. Now the Windows GUI is no longer unique. The are back with same GUI that other Operating Systems Already have and Also just take a look at the icons. They are not good at all. Any information about Windows GUI or you views on it. Please Reply Thank You

WHAT! Windows Vista look still looks much less than linux as always. It still has the same tray bar and just new images that are crisper and clearer. Plus, it has features like expose for mac and transparencies, etc. Try a transformation pack out for XP currently and you will see the difference as i did when i tried a pack.

I have downloaded the Beta from Microsoft and have to say its looking pretty good now. They have worked pretty hard on the new graphics. I like the way you can set the windows to be transparent that looks cool. Some people are saying the new Windows Vista is starting to look more like Mac OSX what do you think?

In my opinion the vista gui in appearance kicks butt, but in the way it works, and system resources its just not worth it. QUOTE ! bill geates dont think we are dont have money ! Bill gates just wants you to spend your money on computers and nothing else!! the faster he keeps moving the faster we have to move to keep up and that = ($)($) kerching! I think if they could make the vista gui run on specs like the xp can run on it would be almost perfect even though aero is infact utterly useless it looks good from what ive seen! And i do think it looks a little like mac and a little like linux with everything being so round, mac and linux have always used rounded edges and such like everywhere, windows has been stuck in the box so to speak with square edges so now they copy linx and mac, whatever next...maybe they will have a tabbed browser like everyone else...oh wait...lol It still looks good though

lol.. it doesn't look like linux.. AHAHA.. i say it looks fancy like a MAC. I'm actually running the window vista transformation pack right now. .with topdeak installed (trial version =( ). It doesn't take up alot of my resources.. The reason why, i'm guessing, that window vista take up so much resource is because..IT"S STILL A BETA VERSION. Actually.. i don't agree with the post above me.. lol. .I don't think Bill Gates will gain anything from consummer having to upgrade their computer because MICROSOFT is a SOFTWARE company, not hardware. Unless they made some secret deal with hardware companies that we don't know about.....

The problem with every windows release is it always needs a stronger computer to run it. While my current computer is way faster than that 386 I bought, the overall speed of doing work has not increased by much. That is my opinion so please don't flame on too much. A prime example is to find an old dos game (if you can get it to run) and see just how fast that baby is on your P4. The OS should not be the biggest resourse hog of your system.

Oh and sadly bill gates will be gone soon, however it may change the way microsoft does stuff, as to compete more with mac so that at least it seems better at every thing, not just productivity This post has been edited by mtvoyagers: Sep 14 2006, 09:18 PM

You can also say that Vista's icons are similar to Mac OS X. and to run aero you would need a computer with good memory and graphics card. here are the requirements i found: a 1Ghz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor 1 gigabyte of system memory a DirectX 9 compatible graphics processor, with a Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) driver, and a minimum of 128MB of Video RAM 40GB hard drive with 15gb free space DVD-ROM Drive audio output and Internet access you would also need Radeon 9500 & GeForce FX
