@ Mio, big dropped Vista features include:
WinFS (more huge than big).
MS Intended to drop all special shell folders, and replace them with virtual ones, they didn't.
Microsoft were planning a 'Mozilla Style' download manager for the sidebar, they dropped this also.
MS Were planning PC to PC synchronization, they dropped this also :[www.microsoft-watch.com]
Those are the ones I looked up myself, there is of course this list, these aren't even features that were promised to be part of Vista, but ones that were in XP that got removed:

The gist of it being, thought these things are not good, they're not the end of the world.

What happens if you have a MacTop which you have connected to an external HD using Time Machine, that you subsequently use without having the disk connected?
That's all I want to know.

Since when were Macbooks cheap?
Sure they might be cheaper than some other laptops, but I'm pretty sure they're not in the realms of cheap.
