This new theme looks a lot like the work of Everaldo.

orethrius, sadly i don't have time to reply in depth to you right now, but some of the things you say i think are a bit unfair. on one or two ocassions you seem to be saying that certain things are bad OS design on the part of MS windows, and then you say that the guy should have expected this bad design, and that his not expecting it shows that he is moaning and that his moans are somehow not valid.

I would say that if the OS design is bad, then it's bad, whether people expect it to be or not.

MS windows is no better just because microsoft have educated people to expect the worst from it.

Orethrius:
Calum, I'm actually inclined to agree with you here.  Unfortunately, the author felt it prudent to not only LOAD Windows on his computer AFTER bad experiences with it, but to start complaining to both a deaf manufacturer and a crippled distributor after his builder failed to provide him with something Microsoft has made a prerequisite.  Additionally, he cites Windows on some issues that really aren't Windows-specific, then goes on to imply that you can fix a Mac boot-disk from that disk.  That may be true of X and later, but it certainly isn't in 9 and prior.  In short, I disagree with his words, but certainly not the heart of his message.  He's heading in the right direction, but his compass is a little off.

No harm no foul, we're really not so far on viewpoints as some may think. ;)

From those screenshots, I'd say Longhorn looks nice.
