What really pisses me off is that they removed THE ONE feature i was really looking forward to in BootCamp : Hibernate and switch between Windows and OS X !!!

Can you imagine, all you do is click a button and 10 seconds later you're in another OS ! WHY THE HELL DID THEY REMOVE THIS ?? They initially promised it right after WWDC presentation on their website and then 2 days later they removed it from the website :(

Why Apple, WHY ?!??

Right, how about a some desktop hardware worth buying to go with it?

Not just a notebook and big monitor both made considerably less useful by sticking them together on a stand and crippling them with entry-level parts.

Clearly, the person that wrote that article has never used VSC under either W2K3 or Vista, not that I'm surprised.

That said, TM is a good feature for OS X.

A nitpick, but I think it should read, "...with iTunes-like Cover Flow functionality..."
