I see Microsoft's idea of a Media Player is still craptastic as ever.

Stop trying, Billy Boy. You'll never get it right. Ever.

I wonder if they'll support E4X in IE7. If they don't, they'll have a horse of angry AJAX developers thirsting for blood outside their campus ;)

I was hoping maybe they'd announce they'd fixed the bsod but sadly that technology is not yet available.

You are easily confused.

It's difficult to "fix" hardware problems and bad drivers, which are what cause BSODs in the first place.

Anyone notice how certain aspects of the GUI have evolved to sort of an OSX quality?

Yeah Vista does have an OSX feel to it. Especially in the way they've done the file folders. I can tell you one thing though its going to be a resource hog from hell.

You're exactly right. I think it's worth noting, however, that BSOD's have become *rare* events since the NT kernel'd OS's hit mainstream usage. I'm *quite* pleased with XP. It's fast, it's stable, and I can customize the hell out of it before I even *install* it :)
