That's entirely wrong...! Vista features new filing systems, indexing systems, kernels, administrative features. Then, along with this is brings a newer, better mail system, a nicer user interface, better media management, better filesystem browsing, more handy tools such as BitEncryption, better multi-user capabilities, better plug-n-play, directx10, etc. etc. etc.
You can not say it is the same operating system with new clothes on - that is simply unfounded and untrue.
But they haven't got it quite right yet, IE7 is a nightmare and the memory management in vista is **** poor.
