Re: Columnist trashes Apple's Leopard - calls it new Vista

I like some things about vista, but my biggest gripe, as the author stated, was that the user GUI was un-necessarily redesigned. What I find really funny is that you have the choice between the Vista start menu, and Windows 95. You'd think as capable MS is at writing software, that they'd give you an option to chose from more than just the two. If they gave an option for the XP start menu, and to be able to re-organize the GUI to be more like XP, I'd be ok with it.

My only other gripe is that stupid "XX is trying to XX - do you approve?" oi.

On a plus side, I will say that the internet is much more efficient in Vista than in XP even after a tweek.

Wow, first time I've seen something bad about Leopard. And rightfully so. Apple shouldn't get a pass on their operating system even if Vista is bad (which, in my opinion, it isn't).
