Based on the subject of this post "Microsoft builds FSX into Vista next year!?"I don't think the person posting has a clue of what was written in the article or what VISTA SP1 is even about.

The magic screenie was a manipulated image based on a desktop wallpaper included in Vista.I spoiled the joke, at least for myself, and I apologize. I've been up way too long the past few days.

Yeah that thing was purposefully the same location as the Vista wallpaper... I forget where it is, in WA or OR somewhere I think.

>Yeah that thing was purposefully the same location as the>Vista wallpaper... I forget where it is, in WA or OR somewhere>I think.oh...heh. Now I feel silly. I actually checked my wallpapers before posting that to see if it was something that was already included (ie, that the magic screenie might be copied from). I guess I didn't look hard enough. I guess I slaughtered the joke from the get-go. And I thought it was a good one, too...

Crysis looks a lot better than that. So much for FSX.

That was a pre-SP1 estimate. It should be much faster post-SP1.
