Windows Vista Followup Already in the Works Codename Vienna, we can see it as early as 2009: "We're going to look at a fundamental piece of enabling technology. Maybe its hypervisors, I don't know what it is ... Maybe it's a new user interface paradigm for consumers. It's too early for me to talk about it ... But over the next few months I think you're going to start hearing more and more http://news.yahoo.com/s/infoworld/20...nfoworld/85937 |
So Vista SP1 near end of 2007, leaves us with 1.5 years before new OS... hmm.. doesn't sound to plausible ? |
in other words, vista is just a stopgap |
Last 6 full years versus the previous six - 2000-2006 versus 1994-1999 Window 2000/XP versus Windows 3.1, Win95, Win98/SE ... there were more changes back then; and people use the OS to make a living, ie working with more software to support business. |
98SE is the finally working version of 95/98 like 3.1 is the finally working version of the Windows before it XP and ME are fubared versions of the previos OS 2K is a still the best OS M$ ever made |
Seriously makes me laugh: Win2K and XP are like 95% the same software, if not more, only diff is that XP has more multimedia support, while Win2K had more network support. :rolleyes: Never had problems with either, and frankly, that's why I'm not eager to switch to Vista: XP is stable and good enough, and there's no needed software that requires Vista to work atm. On a side note: the following OS had to be known to be coming, as they couldn't finish WinFS soon enough. They will prolly pull out a new Vista with WInFS and some special features that require WinFS to work, otherwise, I won't see how they could sell it. |
Ars Technica got a got write-up on why "Vienna" will be a step forward from Vista, it's all about virtualisation; Quote:
