Vista prequel is on a computer at the PC shop, next door to the Mac shop 
where I work.  What a piece of ancient crap! 

When I think about 64 bit computing, and the heavy 64 bit apps. already 
proven in Linux and BSD, I have to agree that Microcrap will NEVER catch 
up!  The 12 year lead Linux and BSD have over Microcrap is insurmountable!

Just installed Suse 10.1, with upgrades on broadband, to a donated 
PIII-800 with 192Mb SDRAM, ASUS P3W-E board, and a 40Gb drive.  
Whooee!!! Very nice OS!
