World is getting smaller, isn't it?

Last time I was smiling (related to Windows) was when I read somewhere that the "best" Vista version comes with POSIX stuff, quite a few of traditional Unix programs and practically says "best Vista is partly Unix".

Practically , the screenshots show the similarities between KDE and Windows 7. It seems that Windows Graphical User Interface has "borrowed" elements from both Linux and Mac.

Indeed it has. Windows 7 has "borrowed" lots of things from KDE4. I can see tonnes and tonnes of similarities between the two taskbars - the superbar and the plasmabar. But yeah, I think KDE is definitely the better looking. It feels professional and elegent yet its beautiful.
