supposably Vista is already taken by like a dozen other companies and this might be small corparations chance to revenge microsoft. As u might know microsoft have been defending its trademark fiercly for agiss, now they might have real competition

yeah the shots are fake as Beta 1 will still be called longhorn, not vista.

And in the image it says "Vista, Beta 1"

By posting that, you show how stupid and how ignorant you are. So don't speak about Vista/Longhorn anymore.

WinFS is the only core pillar stripped from the RTM release, the remaining core pillars are still in it. WinFS will still ship, but after the release of Vista, WinFS should be almost near completion and be available as a free add-on for owners of Vista.

"and the list goes on"

Yeah right bud.
A few things:
Please dont call me stupid and ignorant
2nd, I didn't say that they stripped the core pillars from longhorn, just the interesting features.

rofl, so posting illegal shit on here is ok now, as long as we add a disclaimer that says "By the way, it's illegal to follow my link"? Sort of walking the line here I think team.
it's just a link to a forum thread, no links to any files or torrents :p

Ah lol, this is what I get for assuming ;) The way the rest of the post read I just assumed it was similar to the earlier IE7 link, my bad.

Edit: Er, actually, upon looking torrent links are exactly what I'm seeing? :/

Does Vista have to be purchased ? Or is it a free upgrade for XP owners ?
