>>Come on, think. Use your head. Vista took five years because it had to work with legacy APIs, a legacy file system (since WinFS was cancelled), legacy driver issues, etc.

You two guys can banter all you want, but I, the customer cannot use a lot of Microsoft OS and office created data, such as avi films etc.

Never forget. Being able to read, write and edit legacy data is the single most important mission in software development. Period. Never forget.

We are talking about millions of terrabytes of data for all mankind idiot. History used to be written in books. No more. It is on a cd or hard drive or whatever digital format. It must be forever or nothing. Get that through your dense little brain.

(And .mov? Anyway, just a bit too rude even though there is a point in there.)
