I have been using Windows Vista for 3 days now without a single crash, the load speed is amazing like the visual efects.
Im having problems using my microphone as recording device and playing dvds but the rest its pretty stable.

Transparency, drop shadows and other effects have been in Mac OS X for years! S'funny people are getting excited by this!!
From
eWeek:
"When Windows Vista ships in late 2006, Windows will mimic many features of Apple's Tiger and go beyond it.
With the first Vista beta, Microsoft seems to have taken many cues from Mac OS X with the user interface and features, right down to some of the terminology.
Even some of Vista's icons are amazingly similar to those in Tiger.
For instance, there's the interface names, Apple's Aqua and Microsoft's Aero.
In Vista, "My Documents" and "My Computer" are now "Computer" and "Documents," as they are in Mac OS X.
The search icon in the Vista beta is almost identical to Tiger's Spotlight icon, except that the magnifying glass turns the other way.
Vista buttons and other interface details have a shiny bulbous look similar to those in Mac OS X.
The more-advanced Aero Glass option uses translucent window title bars, a handy feature of Mac OS X that Apple dropped with Panther, but is still used in the Dock.
Many of Vista's file management features will be familiar to Tiger users, but Vista goes further in file management techniques.
Vista folder windows have a search-as-you-type search field, a feature that Mac OS X has had since Jaguar in 2002, but which became dramatically faster in Tiger with the Spotlight search engine.
Vista also borrows Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger's Smart folders, calling them Virtual Folders. This feature automatically creates shortcut files based on criteria set by the user and places them in a folder. (Tiger's Smart Folder does this with aliases.)
One of the useful features that Mac OS X has always had is that PDF is built into its core.
PDF is used for displaying and printing files, and Mac OS X has the ability to turn any document created by any application into a PDF file.
With Windows Vista, Microsoft will attempt to do the same, but not with PDF.
Vista will use a new universal format called Metro, based on XML, for viewing and printing files. The aim is consistency of documents on screen and in print.
This is something that Mac OS has always been superior to Windows, even before Mac OS X. It remains to be seen how successful Metro will be."
