The problem as I see it is XP was/is such a success and is so heavily deployed Vista as well as Windows 7 is like trying to move a mack truck over with a VW. I have Vista Business Ultimate and there is no doubt in my mind it is nothing more than a XP SP4 and Windows 7 looks like SP5. The reason Microsoft is marketing it as a new OS is money, pure and simple. Intel, AMD works hand in hand with Microsoft so that hardware is developed to software specifications and vica-versa..yes? so there's another roadblock for development and innovation. I think software, other than additional "cutesy" graphical changes, energy savings,etc has almost reached its marketable limits and has surely made any "wow" reactions very difficult.
