Interviewed by CNN on 17/2/2010 20:30, Paul B. Gallagher told the world:

>> First of all, Vista and Windows 7 are the same.
>> ...
> 
> What???
> 
> They may share some common features for a particular purpose, but they 
> are most certainly NOT the same!

Well, 7 is an improved version of Vista. It inherits most of the big
changes Vista introduced, and from a maintenance point of view, it's
very similar. The "7" is actually a misnomer -- its version number is
6.1, with Vista being 6.0.

Kinda like the similarity between Windows 2000 and Windows XP: as long
as something didn't need/refer to a new feature introduced in XP, most
tasks could be performed in the same way in both. By the way, 2000 was
version 5.0 and XP was 5.1...

So, they are not "the same" but they share a lot more than "some common
features for a particular purpose." "Siblings" would be a good word for it.
