Microsoft tries to stop more 'Vista-capable' e-mails from going public

http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1254

Even if vista is crap, and it is, Microsoft will prevail... because they
will persist and make the next
version of windows better, and also force all the industry, hardware and
software to confim
with the slow, unstable, incompatible, and bloated OS called vista.

Running Vista on a 4 core 4 gig ram machine, is as good as running XP on a
single core.

So? Those 4 cores are now as cheap as 1 core was.

Vista is making high end hardware cheaper.... lol

It used to be that hardware drove the software market.

In the past few yaers, it is reversed.

Software now drives the hardware market.

I think the s/w market always drove the h/w market. Back in my 709 / 7090
days, the progrmmers pushed for more capability from the h/w. The same in
the OS 360 days. The PDP8 programmers kept pushing for more Core and I/O
capability. The Apple / Mac / PC/s all were pushed by s/w that required
more RAM, faster hardware, more complex I/O... and then networking.
Software is still pushing. I can't ever remember a case where h/w drove
s/w. ??

of course it is the software driving the hardware... LOL

some fools said in here a while back that it was the other way around.

this is wrong of course... it was never this way nor will it ever be like
this.

If you know how innovation works, you will see that everything starts with
an idea, and a need,
the hardware is only there to serve the idea and need that is expressed by
the software...

so the evolution follows this path

Human idea and need> creation of the software that will serve this idea or
need> the creation and improvment of the hardware to serve the software that
serves the idea or need.

of course there are other circles here, but the above is the dominant flow
of innovation. All others are sub-flows.

Not from my experiences and that goes back to CP/M.

I have seen it all. This includes the days when the 8080 was introduced after the 8086
because there was so much 8 bit hardware out in the market.

Then there was the conversion kits to allow 386sx processor to work on 286 motherboards.

Even when Microsoft introduced Windows v1.x it conformed to the PC XT platform which
required a CGA or Hercules video card, a 10MB hard disk and preferrably an Expanded Memory
Module.

Now hardware manuafacturers are working hard to catch up with the software vendors to match
the requirements of the software.

In what parallel universe was the 8080 released after the 8086? 8080 was
1974, 8086 was 1978.

I stated the facts incorrectly via a typo. Mia culpa.

I meant ...

"This includes the days when the 8088 was introduced after the 8086
because there was so much 8 bit hardware out in the market."

When Tom Pitman wrote Tiny Basic (2K running on a PTS) he was bounded by the
hardware. Ohters also push a wapping 4K a 8K version, all pushing hardware.

> Not from my experiences and that goes back to CP/M.

When Gary Kildall wrote CP/M, he too was bounder by h/w constraints and push
the h/w

The 8080 was product way before the 8086 and also was an answer to the
programmers. s/w was out before the products were released. I was in the
labs waiting for the chips to show up so we could run our s/w

Again a drive to satisfy the size and capabilities of s/w.

The MS guys were out there, way before the h/w arrived. The whole concept
of Windows, a GUI, a mouse was developed at PARC and perpetuated by Apple
and MS. The ideas caused developent, drove the s/w developers and again
were ready when the h/w arrived.

Not "Now", as if there's been a changed. Better written " So it

After I sent my reply above, that suddenly occurred to me! :-)

No biggie.
