Funny. I got a Mac and my Vista PC right next to each other, and I did notice these similar features, but like he clearly says, MS didn't steal anything from Mac.

When I first saw the video, I thought it was supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek kind of editorial. I didn't know what to make of it, but I thought this was funny:

You get the feeling that Microsoft’s managers put Mac OS X on an easel and told the programmers, "Copy that."

But not having tried Vista just yet, I'll reserve my judgment.

its pure sarcasm.

it starts pretty bad, but the guy eventually gets going. (the fact that so many of these writers cant do audio/video at all is another thing i find amusing)
