I agree that many Vista features are oddly similar to Mac OS X Tiger.

Yeah, but I mean what about the originality of the new Windows Vista, it is just a copy, and Microsoft is running out of ideas.

There are a few things that t has taken from the Mac, but I would still say there are not that many differences. Most of the major changes seem more the direction of computing as a whole, not just Mac. Not every idea in the world originates from Apple.

...Wow you have no idea about the underlying features and background changes that are going on into Vista do you? You think they're just changing the interface?

Wow...Microsoft steals the idea that a graphics card can be used for more than just blitting rectangles.... Thiefs!

Seriously, It's the natural evolution of computing. As the GPU becomes more potent, it's abilities will be exploited.

I am sure when Enified Shader code become the norm you guys will be crying "Simpson's did it!"
