I totally agree with you, unless things change drastically, we just have a Vista Update

Looks like they changed some GUI`s even during the setup, remember how different longhorn looked compared to the final build? Im sure in the next few years we will see hundreds of changes after the whole Vista fiasco...Microsoft doesnt want another one of them anytime soon.

My english is not perfect but I thought "good" meant something positive...

Well.. vista was not a fiasco.. I like it a lot more than XP and its faster too on all my 3 machines. I still wanted something new. Vista was new and I was never disappointed. I expected issues, like XP had, but... Never expected the copy operation problem. They did get it right though but it took them almost a year for something SO basic and so intrinsic.

Anyways.. I hope windows 7 comes in much lighter and faster like server 08 is. It is fast... I like it... but they need a fresh up with some innovation like they did with office. I am still optimistic that they will pull something REALLY nice out of the hat.

me too it's just the drm/machine check things that get me the most. hey, as long as it is smooth, and pretty to look at, i'd hit it

Well, we should remember the road of changes that Vista had endured and how much it grew out of it's Longhorn stages .

of this release (build 6519)? and were they from users, or press style releases?

They were from mostly press or journalists of the ones I have seen.
