Microsoft seems to be preparing to release an unusual "Vista Plus Pack" on
February 15th. Based on the provided box art, the Plus Pack appears to be a
collection of four casual games that are "Enhanced for Windows Vista". The
listing for the software was found on Future Shop's online catalog by
MadDoggyca in our forums. Details below:

Releases 15 Feb/08. User-friendly software combines the features of Vista
Home Basic with even more impressive and user-friendly capabilities.
Features Windows Aero, an efficient and visually stunning interface that
makes it easier to accomplish multiple tasks at once by providing a
three-dimensional, real-time, animated view of all of your open applications
and documents.

FEATURES:
By integrating search throughout the operating system, helps you quickly
find and organize large collections of documents, pictures, movies, videos,
and music.
Includes Windows Tablet and Touch Technology that enables you to interact
with your Tablet PC-compatible computer with a digital pen or your fingertip
instead of having to use a keyboard.
Includes all of the Windows Media Center capabilities for turning your PC
into an all-in-one home entertainment centre enjoy music, photos, and DVD
movies.
Note that the price of $39.99 is in Canadian dollars since Future Shop is a
Canadian home electronics store.

As some of our readers noted, whatever happened to the Ultimate Extras?
