Ummm...let's see...P on my car is for Park as it is for all cars. D is
for Drive as it is on all cars...R is for Reverse as it is for all cars.
I'm sure auto manufacturers could have come up with alternative names
for their products but why fix something that's not broken.
Search could have been called "look for"...or "where is it"...or
something like that. Standardization of nomenclature is a good thing.
Anyway jobs ripped off gui from x-rocks and everyone knows it.
So forget it Oldfox as there is no salient point to be made other than
you need a real life.

I thought that was a parody -- until I went directly to the New York Times
site and there it was as well.

ROFLMAO.

Re: VISTA IS NOT A RIPOFF>>and here is proof
As I am NEVER going to own a Mac I am not bothered if Microsoft ripped off
some things from OS 10 (or NOT)
All I am bothered about is that what ever is on vista works.

Re: VISTA IS NOT A RIPOFF>>and here is proof
And to think I almost bought a Mac. Hell, I did buy a Mac! It's called
Vista. So, with Microsoft, I get the best of both worlds for a single low
price. Has Apple thought enough to copy Windows for its Mac customers? I
think not!

But they did allow them to bootcamp Windows on to the MAC, infact given the
two OS'es are apparently the same it'll be an easy transition for Apple
users when Apple stops coding OS'es and they are left with Windows:-)

(For all I know OS X could be the best computing experience ever, I'll
likely never know)

Re: VISTA IS NOT A RIPOFF>>and here is proof
I have never used OSX but I did support a bunch of Macs years ago at an
advertising agency. At that time, Mac didn't multitask or support virtual
memory. They were real dogs. I know OSX is better but it still has the one
thing I could never get accustomed to: the single button mouse. What a
waste of time that is: a 5 function controller (the fingers) wasted on a one
function control.
