  • Longhorn was the development code name for Vista.
    This happened on June 6th 2005, at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference. Steve Jobs was doing a recap of Mac OS X Tiger's features, just six weeks after its release. This is when he presented the third-party Dashboard widgets.

      Longhorn was a OS by Microsoft with Windows Own File System, that system was so buggy and closed the project for later give us a fast maked OS called Windows Vista, so Vista's original name wasn't Longhorn.

    Longhorn was the development code name for Windows Vista, which was mostly thought to be vaporware at the time, since it kept getting delayed. Steve Jobs was showing features that ended up being in Vista more than a year later, and jokingly pointed out the fact that Vista was so late. Therefore, it is accurate to say that this excerpt depicts "Steve Jobs vs Windows Vista". Is there anything else you need to get clarified ;) ?

On the other hand all those visual gimmics could be turned off, making Vista look like XP again and also give back a bit of a snappy feeling to the GUI. So you had the choice, either laggy with modernized visuals or a quite snappy with a dated look.

    Vista and 7 are beautiful operating systems. I couldn't use vista on my old college laptop and by the time I upgraded it's OS, Windows 7 came out and we had an academic volume license so I had Windows 7 about 3 days before it released to the public. Metro UI in 8 and 10 just feel lifeless to me. I'm just glad that now for the most part it's a usable UI again though.

      sure, it'd be easy to blame everyone else for the mistake of one. the problem wasn't people with old computers trying to upgrade to vista. the problem was vista. even the new at the time computers that had the "vista ready" stickers on them (which was a partnered idea from MS) came to a grinding hault because vista was a complete resource hog for the standards that it was released during. Why are you throwing a mobile device in there as if that's supposed to mean something, by the way? iOS 7 ran just fine for the hardware it supported (all except maybe the bottom fringe of devices about to be phased out). How is this a comparison to vista?

      The problem wasn't Vista. The problem was people trying to install Vista on computers with 2gb's of RAM and shitty Pentium 4's just like you said.
      Vista required at the very least 4gb's of RAM to run properly, which never came into light until the time Windows 7 came popping around.
      Then Windows Vista Service Pack 2 came out, and fixed a lot of issues with Vista over-all, actually making it better then Windows 7 even in a lot of ways.

      Nothing major was ever really wrong with it other than the original move towards it left some in the cold for drivers and a few other little unexpected things. Within a reasonable time, about a year, it was just fine. I saw a desktop running it in a doctors office not long ago. It was doing just fine. The uproar was more to do with people who wanted to bash it than how bad it supposedly was. Now they are trying to pull the same stunt with win 8, which again, has nothing wrong with it. My grandma can easily find the start, and knows how to shut down, and loves the touch on her laptop. I doubt she's more tech savvy than the complainers out there.

      But that is exactly where and why the Apple Ecosystem shines. The KEXTs in OS X mostly are made by OS X Developers, so they know the system in and out. Most hardware makers don't care that much about their software. Since i use everything, i can tell: If you wan't a rockstable System with a lot of Power, that most of the time just does what you want it to...get a Mac. In Comparison, an iMac isn't that much more expensive, then for example one of those Lenovo AiOs. But you don't get some cheap Plastic with the Apple.
      On the other Hand: If you like to tinker, get the absolute most out of your hardware and want to have the possibility for everything - just build that thing yourself, do some research what components are working together well...

If I remember correctly it was delayed a few times and back then Apple used to make fun of Microsoft a lot. This clip is taken out of its context, which is this whole era where MS was really trying to raise the bar for what Windows could be, clearly inspired by MacOS. And then... Vista was released which didn't exactly stop Apple from making fun of Microsoft.

      The problem with Vista was all the cheap component manufacturers that the typical PC OEMs use not doing their jobs to deliver Vista compatible drivers in time. Thus many off the shelf PCs having lots of problems. But MS gave all those companies more than adequate time to be ready for Vista. If you built a system with decent components from reputable brands, didn't even have to be the most powerful system in the world, Vista worked fine from day 1.

    Not sure why people love hating on Vista so much. The reason it "sucked" so much is because it was too ahead of its time.

      yes to this. at least Vista (XP and 7 too and probs older macs) had personality and stuff, now it's all kinda bland and minimalist, no preinstalled games, no sample music, no cool wallpapers, no cool builtin apps like movie maker (I think apple still have imovie and garageband but that's it), no cool wallpapers
