to me it doesn't really sound like a operating system name....also in the video of the name release...they're clapping? whats with that.....they're acting like its the release if the next Mac OS?
Windows Vista
Personally, it evokes an image of scenary that's a long, long way away...
kinda like the release![]()

If you look at the picture on that link, the people are looking far off into the distance!!

and it will truly be another amazing o/s from Microsoft with various service packs that cause more trouble when installed..

oh crap.....
Ah well, its almost better than the name they were gonna use before...Windows eXPedition. :P
Good. Fast. Cheap. Pick two...
Bare in mind that a definition of "vista" is: a mental view of a succession of remembered or anticipated events.
I'm sure the "anticipation" for MicroSofties will far exceed the payoff.
The video was very lame - let's all change our 10 gallon hat for a BB cap :wacko:
iMac G5 (Ambient Light Sensor) 17" 2.0 GHz, 250GB HHD, SD, 2GB RAM, BT K&M
iMac (Mid 2007) 24" C2D 2.4 GHz, 320GB HHD, SD, 4GB RAM, fancy tethered K&M
iBook G4 (Early 2004) 14.1" 1.2GHz, 60GB HHD, 1.25GB RAM
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Utter, utter bollocks....
Theres already a product called Vista (a education content managenment system) and its utter shit... I can only assme that Vis-horn will follow it namesake....
heheh...
Are you talking about WebCT Vista? That's really is a piece of crap...
I doubt that Windows Vista will make a dent in the universe...
I'd be surprised if many organizations even bother with an upgrade, given that they stripped out most of the "revolutionary" technology...
...because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Your spot on there. I'd be excited about it if it was shipping with the graphics capabilities and the searching function, but as they are likely resigned to being included in service packs, it's not really that exciting.Originally posted by dangelovich@Jul 24 2005, 09:31 PM

Although, I am glad that security is Microsoft's first priority in this one.
But still, they will make a shitload of money off of it.

Here's a Windows Vista hint....Do NOT click the link at the bottom of the wikipedia entry on Windows Vista that reads..
"The Microsoft Windows Vista home page"
...I just did that at work and was mighty embarassed!
I needed to updated that
I thought Longhorn was a cool name (maybe abit too cool for Microsoft) but Vista is a blinds company :P! Oh well. The video was abit sad, people clapping for an operating system that is going to crash! WOO!
Everything on that video you can do with XP now, with abit of money, doesnt look like much new, hopefully its a pleasant surpriseh34r:
