Windows Vista Build 5231 Review

Posted by samzenpus on Thursday October 20, 2005 @12:03AM from the read-all-about-it dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft has just released a new build for Windows Vista and it looks like Microsoft has made quite a few graphical changes. "This is possibly the only application with more anticipation surrounding it than Internet Explorer 7, if not Vista itself. We wonder if Microsoft would bundle Windows Media Player 11 with Vista exclusively or would it be available for download separately for Windows XP as well. It most certainly will end up looking a lot better (graphically) than most music players out there, iTunes included. Although it appears to look pretty straightforward, the interface has changed drastically, which makes it far more attractive than Windows Media Player 10 as well as competing applications."

Google will have a killer media player can can scan and index media files. Think Picassa, but for mp3s.

vs Apple's normal view; try a Mac before you trash it...er, I'm sorry, you're a Windows user.... before you "recycle" it.
