Friday January 06, 2006 Robert Fripp of the King Crimson fame and a genius in his own right has recorded a bunch of sounds that will be used in Windows Vista (formerly Longhorn). Mixed emotions flying by: Wow; This is what happens when you have too much money; Robert Fripp must be pretty desperate; Robert Fripp must be pretty adventurous; They're not going to lure me with their sound schemes; and so on. Interesting how they defined the theme as "clear, connected, confident" (capturing confidence through ambient sounds is especially intriguing ;) and translated into Fripp's own sound coloring system - green and blue.
By the way, if you haven't seen Channel 9 yet, poke around. As a kernel developer, I found particularly interesting the Going Deep series. Check out a Windows kernel architect delving into NT history and comparing it with other OSes.
