Boy, I just can't pass this one up. More internal Microsoft e-mails showing the developers scrambling around in response to experiencing Tiger for, apparently, the first time.
Read the linked PDF. It's a great belly laugh.
I just love how the engineers keep calling Tiger's features "clones" and "ripoffs" of stuff they were planning for Longhorn/Vista, and then they go on to rave about how great they are in Tiger and how much better polished—and, for that matter, complete and operational—Apple got them after cribbing them from Microsoft.
Know what it reminds me of?
Ignignokt: (questioning Frylock's lasers) What was that? Err: Whoa, did those just come out of your eyes? Ignignokt: They're primitive. Err: Damn those are fast, man! Ignignokt: We are not impressed. Err: They weren't that cool.
