Vista Pista
All new waited Microsoft next boon to the computer world - Windows Vista - is going to hit the market soon. This latest flavor from Microsoft has an improved UI. Microsoft’s previous product, Windows XP, had a good functionality with friendly user interface and first of all a wide range of device compatibility. Though there were some security breaches, XP survived to be in the race with Linux. Vista inherits many features from XP, thus standing reliable.
Security has been a major concern to all Windows versions, which is now taken care of. I heard that some chief from McAfee was taken by Microsoft to manage the security related technology in the operating system. Despite of many enhancements, the first vista virus - Monad (written by “Second Part to Hell”) was found just in 8 days from the release of the Vista Beta version. This made Microsoft hide the kernel. Now, software companies are demanding the access to the kernel, as many of their programs should depend on kernel.
Vista claims to prevent piracy of softwares. If Microsoft works on preventing piracy of the operating system or any of its other products, then there is no doubt that it is going to gain profits unimaginable to any human being. Every person with Vista on his computer should pay approx. 7000 rupees just for the operating system. If he plans to install other softwares, he SHOULD activate it online for what ever he will use. In this scenario, a diversion towards open source can be expected among middle-class.
