I took a look at what MS have up about XP.

Looks like Linux to me! Everyone has accounts, just like Unix!

A simplier interface, aka they just wrote a different window manager.

And to top if of, a "My Pictures" application.

Big deal. I am sure there is more to it than that but there is nothing
there that I can't see Linux could do now. Although they probably have
a cool way of suspending applications when someone logs out.

Just made me think of that cool video machine tridge had at
linux.conf.au

Looks like they are still stuck in the were do you want to go today
rather than tomorrow.

Be cool if someone could create a theme of E that looked like that with
a customised Mozilla skin.

If only I had a spare life and was not graphically challenged.
