It's as I said though, unless it provides a noticeable performance increase in areas that effect me, I cannot think of anything they could possibly entice me with.
I would love to be proved wrong and only time will tell but this is Microsoft we are talking about and they are normally fast to hype anything new and radical, which makes me think there is nothing new and radical coming.
Shiny new things must be toyed with :)
The biggest surprise for me with Vista was how much faster the desktop is - for dev work it climbs up a twenty four storey building and pees with remarkable accuracy on XP. The caching and aero are responsible obviously - but hey, it make lotus notes open fast! That's a bloody miracle!
I shall follow PDC with much interest - and doubtless the build will get leaked all over the shot as per usual..
