Apple to release Vista soon | |

Robert Hensing: Looking through the feature set . . . lets see: We've had tagging of applications downloaded from the Internet since like XPSP2 (attachment manager api). We've had the ability to sign applications since like Windows 2000? XPSP2 / Vista have application firewall capability, Vista supports volume encryption. They finally get ASLR - which has been available in Vista since it shipped. SMB packet signing is somehow worth callling out as a security feature of the OS? Must have been running a little short of things to talk about. One interesting thing is 'sandboxing' support . . . but of considerable note is the lack of 'Safari' as one of the applications that is sandboxed? All in all it looks like good incremental improvements to the competing consumer OS. I welcome the competition. | ||

| And here I thought Vista had already been released. :-) |

This is my favorite new Leopard feature:
"Copy Files Between Mac OS X and Windows Copy, open, modify, or delete files in Mac OS X that you saved to your Windows partition. Leopard understands the Windows FAT32 disk format." Who in their right mind installs Windows on FAT32?! You lose all filesystem security. And I'm not even sure if Vista installs on FAT32 anymore. Give people NTFS support and *then* you have yourself a feature. |

This really is a terrible article. I am going to look at this objectively. Here are Leopard's most tauted features:
Time Machine: Has Vista got it? No. Spaces: Has Vista got it? No. Quick Look: Has Vista got it? No. Stacks: Has Vista got it? No. Boot Camp: Dual Boot Windows and OS X - Has Vista got it? No. Core Animation: Has Vista got it? No. Coverflow: Has Vista got it? No. What does Vista have? Let's see: a crappy, overzealous reimplementation of sudo and annoying "glass" transparency that isn't even available unless you pay more for an enhanced edition. Apple releases Vista? Hardly!
