Tech_Dude_5000 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Simply great and some nice informations about Vista. And Windows Media Player will have a cover view too. Interesting. Of course, I'll upgrade to Vista. I've been upgrading since Windows 3.11 anyway (I'm getting old)... :) You Probbly, know most all the tricks in windows, Thats cool, that you have been useing Windows 3.11 - XP, I only been using Windows 98 SE and XP :blush: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/416681-new-vista-homepage/page/3/#findComment-587019657 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishrman Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 And, as an added bonus, it seems the Sidebar preview has also been updated.. a few new widgets, and, it appears as though they've ditched the curved look. My thinking, however, is that if they go with the circular "start" button, then, to maintain.. a degree of uniformity, they'd go with the curved sidebar. In any case, as has been said before, the re-designed site sure is uplifting and much more promising than before.

I think That looks a lot better, then the curve Sidebar, Stright lines make it look more professtinal The new Start button, looks fantastic, love it, and can't wait till i see it in person :rofl: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/416681-new-vista-homepage/page/3/#findComment-587019685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Shake Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Wow, very nice. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this from MS. I've never seen so many people agree on something on Neowin. The reactions are the exact opposite of the ones to the new Intel logo.

+Elі Subscriber² Posted January 5, 2006 Subscriber² Share Posted January 5, 2006 Well the general look appears to probably be definitely final after seeing this new homepage, however looks like the actual icons through the GUI will suffer a transformation for the good, if you look at the main page on that site you will notice the icons displayed for "Computer" and the "Folder" icon has been improved and don't look amateur anymore :) Awesome new homepage, I love it! :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/416681-new-vista-homepage/page/3/#findComment-587019693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazket Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Nice site, but shame the mouseovers aren't pre-loaded. yes; I guess this is a "beta" version of windows vista homepage? :o Microsoft and their "beta" obsession.... :pinch: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/416681-new-vista-homepage/page/3/#findComment-587019714 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeR Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 So I am guessing, that is the final UI then? Somewhat disappointing, using OSX has really raised my expectations in what an OS should look and feel like.

lnmnky Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Why don't you explain a little more as to how its badly coded? [snipped it] I think he means the html. It's ok, but it's not perfect.
