I just watch a clip of Microsoft's Vista, seeing that it is really similar to apple. For example, Widgets-Gadgets and Photo Organizers. Which one came up with the ideas first? Microsoft's Vista or Apple?

Neither. Apple just copies them FASTER.

Microsoft has been copying Macs OS for years.
Did you know that Gates copied Macs OS for his first version of windows??
"In 1983 Microsoft announced its development of Windows, a graphical user interface (GUI) for its own operating system (MS-DOS) that had shipped for IBM PC and compatible computers since 1981. Microsoft modeled the GUI, which was first known as Interface Manager, after that of Apple's Mac OS. Bill Gates had been shown a Macintosh prototype by Steve Jobs early in its development, around 1981, and Microsoft was partnered by Apple to create some of the important early Mac software, such as MultiPlan and Word."
There you go, Microsoft has copied Macs OS for years.
Mac does it first, Microsoft copies them.
