If Microsoft could act on ideas it wouldn't have come out with Vista
and the Zune.

We can basically say absolutely everything out in the open, confident
that they can't get it right ...

If Windows 7 did have a live CD, it'd ... hm... let you run WordPad
with the Ribbon Toolbar. And 3D Spider Solitaire. Think that'd be
convincing up against Ubuntu?
