Windows 7 nu copiaza Mac OS X

Simon Aldous, SMB & Distribution Director, Microsoft Ltd (linkedin), a declarat zilele trecute ca ceea ce a incercat Microsoft cu Windows 7 a fost sa recreeze pe cat posibil aspectul grafic al Mac OS X, precum si faptul ca Windows Vista este de departe un sistem de operare mult mai stabil decat sistemul de operare dezvoltat de cei de la Apple.

What we’ve tried to do with Windows 7… is create a Mac look and feel in terms of graphics. One of the things that people say an awful lot about the Apple Mac is that the OS is fantastic, that it’s very graphical and easy to use. We’ve significantly improved the graphical user interface [in Windows 7], but it’s built on that very stable core Vista technology, which is far more stable than the current Mac platform, for instance.

Microsoft a intervenit oficial pe blogul The Windows Blog, spunand ca, din nefericire, afirmatia de mai sus vine din partea unui angajat Microsoft care nu a avut nicio implicare in dezvoltarea Windows 7.

Unfortunately this came from a Microsoft employee who was not involved in any aspect of designing Windows 7. I hate to say this about one of our own, but his comments were inaccurate and uninformed.

Vorba unui comentator de pe blogul Windows: “Dear Mr. Brandon LeBlanc, I have two words for you: TOO LATE!”.
