the acting in this one was bad but why is there acting anyway? i thought the code room was more reality based. it was better when you put dev's in a room and gave them a task.
honestly i had no idea they put so much effort into the sounds, but it makes sense considering millions of users will hear them every day. i hate the xp startup sound so i hope they don't base it off that. i always replace it with the w2k startup sound
which is my fav
And for what it is worth I think Bill is wrong (big statement I know) about type on mac. Maybe he someone might show him an OSX box so he can provide a more up to date opinion?

i turned off anti-aliasing on a mac at school:
sudo defaults write CoreGraphics CGFontDisableAntialiasing YES
the text looks horrible with it off. so perhaps it is just the anti-aliasing that makes their text look good on the screen after all.
