So what do you guys think?
The next Windows generation "Windows Vista" will be a follow-up of Windows XP.
Some people said that from Windows 98SE/ME/2k to Windows XP/2k3 was a hole revolution...
Guess what? Windows XP to Windows Vista will be even a larger revolution.
Finally Microsoft comes with a new and stable core which can run programs from older 64-bit, 32-bit, 16-bit Windows OS-ses.
To my opinion it isn't as stable as Linux core 2.6 yet but it comes very close though.
The whole layout is strange...
I don't have a copy but my dad has a server (and a very expensive MSDN license) (his experimental pc) running Windows Vista b?ta rc1 build 5048...
Though Avalon, WinFS and other stuff isn't ready it looks promising.
I even like the lay-out, something I couldn't say about XP's standard lay-out.
The next DirectX will be named WGF (Windows Graphics Foundation) and will fully support HDR and Shader 3.0 and hardware accelerated physics.
I think this is the perfect OS for 1944: D-Day.
Further Avalon (which isn't incorporated yet) won't work without a reasonable 64MB graphics card (think Radeon 7000, Voodoo 4/5, GeForce 2 MX/GTS or higher).
The new Windows graphical user interface (environment) is fully 3D...
But when you are going to play a game Windows turns into a console like in Linux and it will no longer "render" thumbnails on your desktop when you are playing a game...
Very very promising, the 64-bit b?ta is out too and sources say it will be written for the next 4 year. It will be able to handle multi-processor of multi-cores (4 max.) and 32GB RAM (32-bit) 65536GB (64-bit)...
OMFG, I want it on my pc :mad: and I want the full version...
But first I need a quicker pc although my system would run Vista just as easy as XP.
Vista's hardware accelerated 3D & Vectorbased GUI should be much quicker than the XP software-rendered vector markup VML GUI...
Anybody else here who has or knows someone who has Vista can he/she post screenshots?
