| | My friend who works at Microsoft customer help told the information to me. I have been asking him for any news (or leakage) about Windows Longhorn, but he was busy to send about those news. But he emailed me yesterday to tell about the change of Longhorn's name. |

Vista (spanish) = View (english) ie.: buena vista Ironic that Microsoft would name this OS "view," since it seems like their is some deep suspicions that Microsoft might just be out to get a sweet vista on the inner workings of your most private computer details. I'm not really concerned about Microsoft seeing everything that was happening on my computer when the OS crashed, In reality, its probably good for the development of whatever Service Pack Microsoft will undoubtedly end of releasing to re-secure its "Most Secure Operating System Ever!" Frankly, I'm more concerned that they're dumping the information into a repository that might be maliciously targeted by hackers, scammers, phishers, etc. Microsoft has too much to lose by "spying" on its customers. I think this is a bit of over-hyped scare tactics by some anti-Microsoft-ers.

Uh oh, that's too bad... Imagine that information stolen by hacker, it's obviously possibly used for identity theft or more knownly as social engineering. Mmm, time to thinking for switching

No, actually, that's not true...  This does not look exactly like Windows XP. Windows are now "popping up" with an animation before it is displayed. File management is allot easier, allot of multimedia features have been added, and overall computer performance is boosted. I like the fact that Windows Vista uses my graphics card more than ever instead of hogging my processor in order to do some effects! Now it is using pixel shaders to draw very stylish and flexible windows! At www.winsupersite.com, you can download a bunch of video clips and screenshots of Windows Vista (Longhorn, if you will). I saw some clips myself and I was pleased to see that the graphical user interface is greatly improved, that the search function is now searching your hard disk, the internet and your "history" for your search terms! (kind of like Google desktop search, although I sure hope that I can configure this Vista's tool to search using Google, instead of MSN search).  You can also create virtual folders! This feature is looking pretty good! Take a look: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/winvi...tualfolders.aspI sure hope that the new Windows version gets more secure, beautiful and functional than ever, otherwise, hello Linux (permanently this time)! All of the pictures were downloaded from the already mentioned site: www.winsupersite.com
