by the time vista is actually shipping and functional (read: sp1...sometime mid/late '07) OS X will have leapfrogged it.

Computers are turning into media devices. Gates and Ballmer don't get that arena. Jobs (ie the largest stock holder in Disney) does.

End of story. The "desktop" is history. Its all about mobile devices and having access to your data. Windows mobile sucks HARD after quite a few years of trying. The only thing worse is how poorly Palm fumbled their advantage (they have done ZIP with the OS).

It'll be interesting to see what Apple unveils on Feb 28...
