Be ready to buy a new monitor and hardware!

Be ready to buy a new monitor, and other hardware if you are planing on to upgrade to Windows Vista.

Traditionally every time Microsoft releases a new version of Windows, it implicitly means that its time to junk your existing hardware, no matter how new it is.

This time, even if you have the latest, and the fastest hardware, its even worse. You might need to replace your Monitor tooo – If you want to see protected contents. You need to get a DRM enabled monitor, which obviously would be expensive.

This is one more way of making money. And its a cheap way of making money.

BTW, PC Mag has a detailed review of MS Windows Vista Beta 1 at : http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1840730,00.asp

Reading the review, clearly indicates that windows is aping(as ever) Mac OS! (it never will)
