I think it’s fair to say that the interface has similarities to MAC OS but I’ll wait to actually use if to see if that’s a positive or negative. I have to admit I like Vista’s navigation and eyecandy, I’m not such a fan of MAC OS X. I’d also say that the closer the systems come to a unified interface the better.

From what I understand Snow Leopard with have strong networking and groupware support out of the box. If that’s the case I think we will see more MACs in business, thus pushing training and education to new heights. Anything to reduce user frustration is a plus in my book.

On the other side I’d encourage Apple to take a feature from MS. Include native VM support within the OS so those who need to use Windows can just mount images without third party tools.
