A lot of those desktop features in Vista do look very much like copies of stuff that linux distros had developed.
I suppose MS would run out of original ideas sometime
only thing is MS charge for the privilige of having something that is avail for free
There was even story about a geek who setup linux to look like Vista and no one knew it wasn't Vista

actually MAC had them LONG before the *nix boys attempted to clone them which is ages before mickeysoft did the vista impersonation.
gnome and kde both impersonate aqua and os/2 to some degree, kde especially....

Word - came from Xerox PARC
Excel - written to compete with existing products such as Lotus 123
MS-DOS - bought from Seattle Computer Products
Windows - followed the path taken by Apple and others
SQL Server - bought in originally (from Sybase)
Whatsa a linux and vista? computors really suck bags big time
Major part of the heart and soul of AULRO.comIt annoyed me when OTC moved to MS products.
I had to learn Excel - I was a Lotus 123 user. Actually I had been a VisiCalc user in the days of the TRS80. VisiCalc was the first spreadsheet - even before Lotus 123
For word processing I used Lazy Writer (TRS80) then moved to Word Perfect on the PC but had to move to bloody MS Word!
