Isn’t OS X Leopard a copy of Vista, Linux, and Sun Microsystems?
I find a lot of Leopard features are practically copies of other systems. The only good feature worth upgrading was Time Machine, but that in itself is not a good reason to update from Tiger.
Examples of copying:
3D Dock – Sun’s Looking Glass project, been here for a long time : http://www.sun.com/software/looking_glass/
(it doesn’t even work like a 3D object!)
Transparent-like menu bar – just like Vista’s translucent taskbar/windows except implemented in an awful way, compared to Vista’s more elegant style.
Spaces – Linux has had virtual desktops for a long time. Nothing new at all. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaces_%28software%29#Comparison
parental controls – Vista’s had this for a long time too. And yes, they do work. They’re done quite nicely.
That’s just some of the things I notice.
As a Tiger user, Leopard is merely a laugh. You have to be dumb to upgrade to a new OS because of one major feature.
So what’s your opinion on Leopard’s copying?
Hi, yeah u r right, now that I think about it almost all of Leopard’s features have been around for a long time. I kind of prefer Linux to all other operating systems anyway, but Vista isn’t bad either. Its on my parents desktop and it seems really stable.
Take care!
