Now if it actually incorporates VMs for backward compatibility built on the proven NT kernel, I think they may be onto something. What I see as the problem here is that Microsoft is going it alone like it has so many more times in the past. If this were a joint-venture between M$ and VMWare or some other company of that ilk, I could forsee this being a successful product.
Unfortunately, M$ won't do that and this product will be hyped to the max and actually provide a lackluster experience for users.
My big issue with Vista is that it doesn't let network admins do their job. UAC is a major pain in the ass obstacle that treats everyone like some n00b who doesn't know how to use a computer. It takes me 5 minutes to do in Vista what would have taken me 20 seconds in XP.
If you want to consistently throw a BSOD on Vista, try syncing an iPod. I'm going to wait until they come out with a SP2 to re-evaluate this crappy OS.
If you don't like the free service from Hotmail, go somewhere else! It's what everyone is allowed to do in a free market. I ditched Hotmail for Gmail a long time ago.
Names seem to matter as much as the product itself. My dad designed and built something for Westinghouse that was going to Germany named the MIST. I suppose it was an acronym for something; but upon arrival in Germany, it had its name changed to something that wasn't offensive. I don't speak German, so I don't know what that would be misinturpreted as.
Another naming failure was with the Chevy Nova. Nova, in espaniol, means "it doesn't go". I'm sure this was just an over site by GM. But the cars didn't sell well in Latin America and other Latin countries.
Much like most of the X-Files series, if I see this movie, I'll be disappointed by an anticlimactic ending that solves absolutely nothing. I think I'll save my $8 now and add it to my Netflix queue now.
I read about that yesterday. I had a lot of good times with it. I thought it was fun to create ad-hoc Beowulf clusters afterhours in the computer labs at the school I used to work at with clusterknoppix. The Mosix website had a valid point about multi-core CPUs and VMs. OpenMosix... RIP

And it will run on a machine like the IBM XT .

If I had a poltergeist in my house at the other side of the state. Would that be considered Spooky Action at a Distance too?
Do you really own something if you can't sell it? Kinda like a leased car.
My point exactly!!!!
isn't this just enabling police to watch things happen instead of doing things about it?
Thank you. I'm enlightened and I learned how to swear in another language.

Well, Mosix did what it did very well. Now there are alternatives to do what Mosix did without all the power, space and hardware considerations.
