Windows Vista: The First PC Operating System That Requires a GPU to Get the Best Experience
Overview Windows Vista will be the biggest change in PC computing since the introduction of Windows 3.1 in 1992. The steady improvement in PC performance driven by Moore's law reflected in faster CPUs, amazingly powerful Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), large capacity fast, yet affordable memory and hard disks make a modern PC look better than a super computer of just a decade ago, and yet sells for about the same price or less as PC did a decade ago. Windows Vista brings all these developments together and exploits them to the user's benefit. It has been a long standing lament about all the unused computing horse power one has. Windows Vista taps into that horsepower and makes great use of it.
