Question: Is Windows making an equivilant to Dashboard (on Macs) on its next version? 

Answer: Well it  wouldn't surprise me.  The user interface of Vista looks more and more like OS X everyday.  \n\nThere is actually a Windows equivalent to Dashboard.  It used to be known as Konfabulator but the name changed when Yahoo! bought the company that developed it.  It's now called.....err......Yahoo! Widget Engine.  Not as cool as Konfabulator if you ask me. Anyway, Yahoo! Widget Engine can be download at the following URL:\n\nYahoo! Widget Engine:\nhttp://widgets.yahoo.com/
