@ cyco - I have nothing against the borrowing of features as long as they are made distinctivly different and theres evidence of original ideas being used as well as the copying.
@ gov its a os so I think it will always be debated, also we were discussing earlier how well it will work on a intel mac
@ green - agian thats a fair point, microsoft have a huge market share, although it will go down in time (i think), but would MS have such a market share if apple didnt limit its OS to just mac computers (hardware) untill recently?

But Apple used the unix kernel that was available at the time, they didn't write their own kernel from scratch. If that's not using an original idea, I'd like to know what is!
What's to say that the next verison of mac os might not copy an 'original idea' from Vista?

I think you misunderstood what I meant there, Im saying as long as when somethng from one os is copied into anohter for an upgrade, as long as theres other ideas put into it I dont mind. Basically what im trying to say is I dont mind things being copied as long as there are other features whcih are new and original in the software as well as those copied.
