"Thus even for PC owners who have purchased new machines in the last year, hardware upgrades of one type or another--either a new graphics card or, if a machine's graphics can not be upgraded, possibly a new system--may be necessary to run Windows Vista's Aero Glass effects."
Most people will not be able to upgrade to Vista due to the obsurd hardware requirements it demands. Also, when Microsoft integrates an tool such as Anti-Spyware or, as in the case of XP, the ability to handle ZIP files, they usually only offer the most basic of features. Third-party solutions tend to offer a more complete solution.
On the Slashdot front page, at the time of this posting, the most recent five articles have 17, 124, 101, 178, and 232 comments.
On the Digg front page, the most recent five have 1, 6, 5, 15, and 13 comments.
Yep, Slashdot is REALLY in danger.
On digg it's not the number of comments it's the number of diggs that matters.
