Would someone please tell me why it seems like everyone is so excited about the features in an OS that's 2 years away?

I mean, BFD. Wake me when it hits beta.

We've been playing with it here at work, it's still a long way from completion (and no WinFS support yet since that's waiting on the next SQL Server release I believe) but it's pretty cool.

My personal strategy: Keep on using Windows 2000 for games since I've tweaked it to run faster than 98SE, ME or XP. I will only get future versions of windows to learn them for work. (I own a PC repair business.)

I would like it if Linux gets massive PC game support. But that day is far off, if it ever happens.
