microsoft.com — It appears that Microsoft doesn't trust Vista enough to even test their own software. If you scroll down, the screenshots are clearly taken from a computer using OSX (and probably Parallels), especially the Professional Presentation shot. Even Microsoft doesn't trust Vista enough to use it!

Well, you also have to note that Microsoft doesn't make the computer hardware, only the software. Would it bare speculation if it were running on a Dell or HP machine? Of course not (mind you, you wouldn't be able to tell). Nonetheless, they can use whatever hardware they want because what they're trying to do is sell the software.

Uh, why is this news? Expression Media is also available on Mac, and Microsoft makes a lot of software for Mac.Buried as lame.

To me, the screen shot that looks emulated is most likely just a mixture of a few shots.

In keeping with the MS tradition of innovation through acquisition, MS Expressions is just the re-badge of the recently acquired iView Media Pro:<a class="user" href="http://www.iview-multimedia.com/">http://www.iview-multimedia.com/</a>iView Media Pro was running on Macs well before Windows and has a large Mac user base so having screen shots from OS X is hardly a crime.
