Agreed. All this breathless hyperbole of trivial things. Yawn.
Most of the things discussed were on our windows machines years ago and we removed them because we didn't use them.
I kinda agree Joe, but I use such an assortment of trivial things daily...hourly!...that I'm interested to see if some of these trivial things may help me get more done. It's all about the productivity. Searching is a big deal if I'm trying to look through the thousands of documents on my system. The fact that Windows folks may not use a dictionary or a calculator is fine if all you do is surf and play games but for writers, designers, etc., having a group of desk accessories move in and out of the document creation process at the click of a single key is rather valuable. I do the same kind of work on both Mac and Windows and know that for those in a production environment, the improvements in Tiger would be helpful on either platform. I guarantee Bill will be touting the same features in a year or two.
