Unimpressed
I must say that I am very unimpressed with the "features"
that are coming in this new version of the Windows
operating system. From the screenshots I have seen around
the net and the speeches made, it seems that when this
version finally arrives it will be immediately out of date.

Not one single item in the descriptions is new. Seems they
have only changed the names and copied things from other
operating systems then called it their own. Nothing new to
see here.

Shame that it is going to take them years to produce what
already exists in other operating systems today. Although I
do admit that the term "stacks" is a lot better sound than
"piles"
