Comment: NTP (Score 1) 290
In my experience, NTP is the easy solution that nobody uses. Because hey, it's only a clock, right? How hard can it be?

The only real story here is that Microsoft makes another kneejerk reaction to OSX.
Seriously, if I were the UI lead for W8, I'd save time and start with a 'shopped W2K screenshot as a mockup. It's clear that nobody at MS particularly takes UI seriously except for the purposes of competing with Apple and selling graphics hardware, and their article running down the changes between OS versions does an excellent job of highlighting that as soon as you get past W98.
If MS wants identity, they ought to focus on the business users, and make something that looks like a Blackberry in 2D with the corners sharpened out. Polarise their users against the softy OSX interface.
(For karma's sake, I should point out that I've been an OSX convert for several years since I dabbled in *nix after W2K)
Are slashdot editors really this shortsighted?
