Has anyone been looking at Windows Vista, the new OS beta that Microsoft is putting out? It's supposed to be a lot more secure than any previous Windows operating system because it doesn't rely on kernel technology so much.

I have heard previously that it is supposed to be a Game Platform OS because of it's supposedly vibrant graphics. But I don't really see that feature being emphasized in the ads and commentary from Microsoft about it yet.

Here is a link - what do you think? Or as HyPNO says .... DISCUSS.


ps-I am by no means shilling for Microsoft. It's just that I'm a bit disappointed with the advertising thinking it was going to be very game oriented.

Well I didn't post much of a translation, I think, but you're welcome smile.gif . If anyone wonders that page is in Norwegian.

Anyway here is another page in German. If you have the patience to wait until the page loads there are a few more before and after DX9 & DX10 shots towards the bottom:

Sorry for not posting anything else than flight sim shots, but as of now I don't know of any other program that will be using DX10. Any tips appreciated!
