Q: But Mac OS X already has a lot of these features. What's the big deal?
A: Apple has implemented some basic desktop composition features in Mac OS X "Panther." But the basic problem with Mac OS X isn't going away: It's a classic desktop operating system that doesn't offer anything in the way of usability advancements over previous desktop operating systems. Today, Windows XP and its task-based interface are far superior to anything in Mac OS X. In the future, Longhorn will further distance Windows from OS X. From a graphical standpoint, there won't be any comparison. As Microsoft revealed at the PDC 2003 conference http://www.winsupersite.com/reviews/pdc2003.asp , Longhorn is far more impressive technically than Panther.

Nu ger iofs Paul Thurrott intrycket av den största loser som går i ett par skor, då jag är en teknisk novis undrar jag om det finns den minsta grund för att Longhorn på tekniska grunder skulle vara överlägset OS X. På det hela taget är det annars lite patetiskt att jmf. Panther med något som MS kanske lanserar 2006, börjar man ana panik hos Win. användare?
