Microsoft does nothing original. The big issue is that Microsoft users will look at it and do their oohing and aawing, thinking that they have come up with something new. I really feel sorry for them.
Sounds to me to be the same thing as an Apple Users response. Seriously, Apple does not invent everything to be new like you guys like to think. You think Apple is some godly thing that does nothing but innovate. Apple did not invent the Dock, and Microsoft does not copy EVERYTHING Apple does.
You can hit the thumbs down button all you like, it doesn't change the facts.
The personal computer was invented by Steve Wozniak of Apple Computers.
Gui was invented by Zerox, in which they just flippantly gave to Apple, then Gates thought he would steal the code and got his a@# sued over.
Then there is the start of the whole digital media, which actually began in the early 80's with none other than Apple being computer of graphics users world wide.
In the late 80's the first non-linear video editor was on a Mac.
Apple then invented Quicktime. Quicktime is the foundation of iTunes, and the iPod, which are both Mac inventions. Microsoft, like always, a day late and dollar short, came out with the iPod killer, the Zune. A month later Apple introduced the iPhone.
Microsoft has come out with it's own online media store but honestly I can't tell you the name of it.
As far as I know they did invent the whole Office thing, and IE, but they haven't really gone far with that. It's so basic and mediocre. There is no excellence or creativity in their products.
Mac users take a lot of pride in their computer. We're proud of the fact that we don't get virus's, we don't crash near as much, our software works great, and let's face it, we did spend more money and you always get what you pay for. It's not all perfect, all the time. But when a Mac is running at it's peak, it's running great. I have been in the graphics business for twenty years now, and I have a working policy, "I do not work on PC's".
How does screen effects help communicate effectively? Half the video's focus is on transitions and effect! And do CEO's even know what audio graphs are?
Well it helps the audience keep the focus on the slides.. since humans attention span is really short (<30 seconds) this is really important. Of course they should look decent to be usable in business tho.
No one said Apple invented everything, we're just tired of the fact that Microsoft seems to get all of their ideas from something that Apple has put out there.
Apple takes as many ideas from other places as any other company. The difference is Apple will take a good idea and improve it or implement it in a way that makes it better. Microsoft will take a good idea and either implement in a way that's counter-intuitive or put a shiny coat of paint on it to make it appear better. Or they take something Apple already perfected and doom it to mediocrity.

Kernaling?
This is why graphic designers use Macs.
Oh and when video taping for public distribution you might want to pull the blinds, especially when they backlight the screen.
This is why MS folks will never get it.
I was thinking the same

You are so right, Apple
You are so right, Apple didn't invent the dock! But NeXt, founded by Steve Jobs, did. NeXt was later acquired by Apple upon Jobs' return.
It was actually Acorn that
It was actually Acorn that had the Dock in first, not NeXt.

Good call Lucky.

Erm - how does that fx help?

What a waste.
Well it helps the audience

Nice!
Cable Management.
Indicative
That was the first thing I noticed and I'd say an indicator of the way these peoples minds work; in turn how the code is written.
Spaghetti style
that software just seems too
that software just seems too cluttered for my taste.
Cluttered
Like their cable managemnet.
