Here's one example: There is a dialog in Windows that hasn't changed since
the Windows 3.x generation. If you're in the Fonts folder, the context menu
has an option to "Install a new font...". Clicking this option provides the
old dialog box from Windows 3.x.
Every "new" OS out of MS lately has just been a rehash of previous OS's with
a few new "features" added - Vista's no exception.

"To create a new standard, it takes something that's not just a little bit
different; it takes something that's really new and really captures people's
imagination — and the Macintosh, of all the machines I've ever seen, is the
only one that meets that standard."
