Video taken from macTV Videocast, shows some Vista "innovations" that, in fact, are only copies of Mac OS X programs and system. Check it out, and you'll be able to see just how similar Windows 'Vista' will be to our familiar Mac OS X. Apple Rulez!!!! PS. If you're one of the hundreds of commentators who didn't understand the hilariously SIMPLE fact that this is OS X put to Vista commentary, I suggest Closing Your YouTube Account.

Oct 22, 2008 - Like what for example? Speech Recognition has been in Mac since Mac OS 7 or 8. Apple copied Linux with spaces. We've had it for ages and I believe that Microsoft comes next :P Anyhow, I don't care.

Oct 22, 2008 - Microsoft had Gadgets, Glass effects(meh?) quick search all in design before Apple got anywhere near releasing thier OS including such features, but as per usual, trying to teach Apple fanboys truth is like trying to attack a brick wall with a broken toothpick, they're that thick... >.>

Oct 23, 2008 - Before Apple? So that would be before 2004? Hmm I seem to not find those features in XP...

DaveTV2 Says:

Oct 23, 2008 - OK, nbates66 since you seem to know so much about it. Please provide us "gullible" people with some examples and specific production / release dates along with links to your sources. I would love to see you support this claim.

Dojan5 Says:

Oct 23, 2008 - Lets see now, gadgets, yes, you are correct there, atleast if we're speaking of built into the OS (refering to the Longhorn Concept, not Vista), although, if we're speaking of public releases, nope, Mac had their gadgets before Windows. Transparency in the menus have been in Mac for ages, and quick search was not on XP. Anyhow, I don't care.

Dojan5 Says:

Oct 23, 2008 - Depends on the PC and the version of Mac. I wish to run OS X, but I can't since my CPU does not have support for SSE2/3

DaveTV2 Says:

Oct 23, 2008 - Coolin93, I will as you the same thing just asked nbates66. Please provide us with examples and specific dates along with your sources. No opinions, no assumptions, just supported facts and dates please. Thanks!

Oct 24, 2008 - Of course. Isn't that a convenient way to avoid backing up what you said with facts. Blame it on YouTube. You know what, don't bother. You may hurt yourself and I do not want to be responsible!

nbates66 Says:

Oct 24, 2008 - look, take the first portion of Youtube URL, put a slash at the end and then paste the text from my previous message and stop being a typical apple marketting clockwork goblin :P

DaveTV2 Says:

Oct 25, 2008 - LOL! Is that supposed to prove something? I know all about Longhorn and have seen the demos. In my opinion what they had in Longhorn was a HELL of a lot more original than what they ended up with Vista. But your sending a video of it really does not prove anything specific. I will send you a PM with exact dates.

nicholsml Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - Wow, and to think you can have a Mac for a couple of grand more then a comparable PC. Fail

fidofetch Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - Linux had all these features, except the fast search, before vista or mac

sifriheavy Says:

Oct 31, 2008 - not all of them, mac got expose and other stuff first, in fact, linux is a big copy of almost anything except 2 or 3 effects from compiz fusion.

Nov 8, 2008 - THATS A MAC

GShinato Says:

Nov 9, 2008 - I agree, In fact, all of the mac commercials show Linux as a geek. I think that compared to mac and windows, Linux (some distros) can be gangster, like I could get a Ubuntu system running in an hour on a decent PC. It just takes some adjusting, and you're there!

cookiemaen Says:

Nov 9, 2008 - Mmmhmm, I see. This is just Fanboi propaganda. Why stick to one thing when you can enjoy it all?
