kick ass. thank god ie7 finally has tabbed browsing
For anyone who's interested, Windows Vista is the new name for the product code named Longhorn. It's due out next year.
Probably be 2007 before people start to deploy it on a large scale in business environments.

When you open the site eamo posted, click on the little pictures to see large screen shots of what the new Operating System from Microsoft will look like.
The site is a computer magazine and they review new products in the same way that a car magazine would.
What a nice comment to make Peadar and from a Corky Boy too LOL = why, thank you kindly good sir. :D - really am desperate at this computer crack - trying hard though :oQuote:

It sees problems earlier so can deal with it rather than "Not responding"
Also, as thejollyrodger says, there's tabbed browsing in internet explorer 7. Kinda shows that microsoft are kinda scared of firefox.
You wont need Vista to run IE 7 as far as I know.Quote:

Hardly! It simply shows that Microsoft take the good ideas of others and cram them into their own products.Quote:
