[KLUG Members] GEEK JEOPARDY: 15 DAYS!

[Rusty Yonkers]

I went up to the website.  I also found some more on it that included
some video demos.  Security-wise if they would simply do the security
more like *nix (they are getting closer to being able to with XP)
that would help most of the security problems.  

The interface looks a lot like what the Mac has available now under
Mac OS X.  Once again Bill is "stealing" from Mr. Jobs.  The Mac
interface is nicer still though.  The longhorn interface suffers from
clutter that is not in the OS X interface.  They are doing the
transparency thing and animated and bouncing icon stuff like in OS X.
 When it ships we will have to listen to all the idiots that will be
proclaiming how smart and wonderful Microslop is for inventing such
cool new stuff for us not knowing it has been around for years!
