I must say, my fav looking features are the "shut do" and the scrollbar in a menu.

good to see what 4 years of development have produced.

shit, and they claim they still have another 2 years before release.. ! must be hard squeezing those last two letters "wn" in eh?

i don't know who comes up with those moronic ideas, but i gotta say, this OS looks like garbage.
lemme guess, minimum ram requirements are 512megs.. right? shit.

Well, considering that finally the OS is gonna give full controll of graphic processing to accelerators and have it render everything, it's probably gonna take a nice load off the RAM from storing all the shit..

Yeah but you'll need an insane amount of RAM to run it. It REQUIRES 512Mb RAM and I'm guessing it'll use more than half of that with you CPU on idle.

I wonder what a rendering engine would do for an OS anyway ? Render a window in 3D ? Heh.

No, but it'll take the task of rendering the 2D graphics away from the CPU. Think how insanely intense a graphic workout a bottom-end cheap-ass PCI Radeon 7200 was designed for. It'll render and store all graphics and shit in the video card and the VPU will process the graphics, as opposed to the CPU handling them and shit being stored in RAM. That right there is gonna free up a TON of the CPU to do more.

final?

that IS the final, not a beta, all they're really working on now is drivers and extensions for the OS.. since that's the developer release..
it's not a beta :|

and fred, what you just described is something osx has been doing for 2 years :P

seems like all the features i've been hearing about that are going to be in longhorn have been removed, and yet the release date is constantly being pushed back..

If all these features have been removed, what difference will there be between Longhorn and XP then ?

Yeah like neoform said OS X has had the graphics acceleration for a couple of years. Although it should be noted that it also needs 512mb of ram to run properly as well (although they still ship systems with 256).

dev build != beta.
the core of the system is not in beta anymore..

maybe it's new (as they call it) shell is in beta, but the OS is not.

I don't think pics would do it justice, I'd need to see it in action.

Like if they have the ripple effect going then it will surely sell..

what ripple effect?

the most intensive thing the OS does is either
a) minimizing a window to the tray, which is useless beyond showing non-geeks where the window went..
or
b) showing all open windows, using miniturized versions.. which i find less eye-candy and more functionality..

i doubt windows' glass effect will have any positive functionality..
