Yes but .... You and I are not Microsoft, neither do we possess their magical powers for "innovation", so they can give you an output that's not as nice to look at or read as under Vista. May be I'm an old cynic. Regards Sid.
ISTR that they did the same thing with their version of Java. Eventually, Sun won.
