Oh dear Chav,

Vista is properly broken. a lot of users are finding it takes an AGE to move copy or delete files, there are issues with hardware drivers for even mundane things (including the ability to talk to Microsofts very own Pocket PC), forget it if you have an iPOd as it will wipe your iPod of music.

As for the 'cool' stuff, Linux has had desktop widgets via Superkaramba for YEARS, you can embed stuff in your desktop (I have a nice ticker with the threads from my fav Usenet group), weather, system performance monitors, 3D switching of desktops (Windows and Virtual Desktops), in fact, there is nothing in Vista that hasn't been on Mac and Linux for a country age.
