  In the age of 'Web 2.0' both older folks who remember the days before Windows and younger folks who have never known anything else are beginning to see Microsoft's offering as old news.

- Windows Vista Beta 2 features bugs and blue screen
  Posted by Jeff from Appleinsider
  "I have been testing Microsoft operating systems since Windows 95, and this is the buggiest OS I've seen this late in development," said Joe Wilcox, an analyst with Jupiter Research. "Look at the older operating systems, and by Beta 2 there is a stable foundation on which the [independent software vendors] can build."

  This is like hilarious. We haven't shipped the latest version yet but already we're promising to deliver the next one faster. Lies, lies, lies! Ship this one first Steve! Six years and counting...

- A Parallel Windows Universe
  Posted by Billbar from Dave-lucas.blogspot
  Last week, the much-anticipated Parallels for Mac OS X finally exited beta-land and became a real, live, shipping piece of software ($50 through July 15). It lets you run Windows (any version–or Linux, or Solaris…) on any Intel-based Macintosh. In a window, no less, so you don’t even have to restart the computer when you need to duck into a Windows program. It runs in a window of its own, as though the entire Windows world were just another one of your Mac programs. And it’s fast, although not fast enough for 3-D games.

  This hurts Dell and other PC makers over time. Shouldn't hurt MS initially, but will over time.

- Microsoft's Allchin has final mission of Vista delivery
  Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times
  Wow - Holiday 2006. Amazing slips. Assuming they ship it this year, that's 5+ years after Windows XP. And weren't they saying H1 2006 last year? Pathetic.

New Apple ads savage Microsoft's $300m Windows campaign

yes those are great commercials Vista does suck old nasty sweaty balls because it tried to DRM trap it’s users and offers very sub par experience and performance
but i would never use a Mac. it is an even more abhorent monopoly using the same hardware and overpriced. i will format them to XP for friends though.

Apple should be careful – those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. I have been an Apple devotee for decades, but the quality of their products and customer service has slipped considerably in the last few years. I only have to count the number of dead iPods and botch-fixed Shuffles littering my house to remind me that Apple hasn’t put the same amount of care and customer-focused consideration into its recent product lines. Arrogant Apple, rather than the old-school Affable Apple seems to be the order of the day. Strikes me that it will be the sort of cheap-shot ad that comes back to haunt them in times to come.

Umm, its an applet, so why the hell won’t it run on any devices that supports the proper JVM? Anyone know what the limitation is?

Not sure I buy into the idea that something is doomed just because it’s Windows-only (for now).
