What absolute tosh

So what you're saying is that they're both quite thin. Something that was inevitable.

They're a different colour, different port layout, different keyboard. It has as much in common as my 4 year old laptop as the MacBook Pro.

It is more likely that this is an attempt to grab peoples attention in place of good reportage.

"God help all new-born babies"

This story actually proves the welsh lad right, if he can be arrested for saying something with no threatening language, then God help all new-born babies.

I do realise anything can be taken as threatening or negative if taken out of context, for example, "I like your new television" could be taken as "I'm about to steal your television", but these misunderstanding are usually only by complete idiots.

There really should be something in law that protects from context misinterpretation in written comments. Issues in the context of comments must be something that has been around for centuries, but is now exaggerated by blogs, and that they are written by people without restriction, and available for all to see.

So what I’m really trying to get at is that I want the law system to use common sense. By simply warning the man about his comments and asking for an apology they could have saved the tax payer a lot of money, and I bet his £150 did not cover it.

Vista Features

I don't know about anyone else, but the only good thing that Vista has, and that M$ should bring over to XP is the sidebar.

I can't think of one other thing that I liked about Vista when I bought a shiny new PC from Dell (and then replaced the OS with an Ubuntu/XP dual boot).

And if Micro-shaft is quietly dropping Vista in favour of Windows 7 next year, why don't they at least offer the nicer features of Vista as an add-on (free or for a nominal amount).
