"Leopard looks like ... Vista" Rant

[GimmeSlack12]

Wasn't this article already ripped a new one? I love reading this kind of stuff though. It's just so fair isn't it?

What is even more annoying is all the people in the world who read articles like that and believe them. And say crap like, "Apple are ripping off MS's ideas".

Sigh, makes you wonder what she has as a degree - or even how she got that far!

If she actually believes what she writes, she's an idiot.

There are a few things that seems vista inspired, such as the transparent menu bar and the 3-dish dock/tray, and that annoying 'grass' background, but thats about it... I didn't recall vista having a dull gray itunes look to all their windows, or metal-style buttons/controls.... etc etc.

Makes you wonder huh? Honestly, I don't think this lady has ever touched a computer. She doesn't seem to know what half the stuff even is. Most of the stuff she mentioned has been in OS X for some time now. Someone needs to check the expiration date on her brain; I think it's gone bad.

To be fair, Timemachine has been around in Windows for several years. Mind you "System Restore" is a bit basic and primitive, but still, I don't think OS X has this feature right now.

How can anyone even CLAIM to be a journalist when they don't even research the topic! It's an utter shambles.
Like one other user said, there's always Wikipedia if you can't be bothered to go and use Tiger in person.
I wouldn't give up your day job, oh wait, it is her day job ...
