    On a side note, this "killer" stuff is getting way out of hand, with iPod killers and Flash killers, and /. killers, and YouTube killers and now apprently Vista killers...

    Please folks; enough with the killing.

    Can't we all just get along?


    Yes we should all love each other such as IPod lovers, Flash lovers, /. lovers, YouTube lovers, and apparently (to highlight the spelling error ;) Vista lovers

    Perhaps the love is also getting out of hand? One thing is for certain though, the IPod love is definitely out of hand!

    How about making Firefox look like Outlook express?
    Wow ... I mean ... Wow

    I'm not sure how you think making a web browser look like an email client will do anyone any good.

    I won't even go into what I personally think of the Outlook Express interface, as that is just opinion.

    You know now that I think of it you are on to something here, OSS needs this kind of thinking to really take off. We need Open Office to be designed to look just like Nero. And if only Evolution looked just like Windows Movie Maker. That will make adoption so much easier!

    Perhaps, we can take the "FUD" that people like to associate with any exaggeration nowadays, blend it with "hyperbole" which is what a name like "Vista Killer" really is, and call it "FUDperbole."

    Of course, people who don't know where the accents go, might pronounce it "Fud-per-bowl", which might make it sound as if it's the U.S. championship of FUD.... little CGI bottles of FUD squaring off during the commercials...

    Okay, this is going way off course. It's pronounced FUD-per-bowl-ee. New cool haxor word within 6 months. Gahronteed.

    Being called "Vista killer" this stuff might strike fear, uncertainty and doubt in Steve Ballmer :P
