One of the largest problems with Vista Aero is that it uses DX10 which itself bases on unified shaders ... which only X1000 series even supports today (NV has no series with support of it) ... and without that, it will not be able to use your systems power that good ....
And on the 3D = eye candy.
most stuff shown on the most actual build should run theoretically on a crappy 1Ghz system with a GF2 without any problems. I've definitely nothing seen so far that makes sense for the high reqs.
They are just needed because the media extension in the new desktop system supporst ANY 3d stuff not just the simple window stuff ... so theoretically you could write a really cool desktop and file management system (like Jurassic park had it years ago ;-) ) ... instead of this stupid explorer thingy.
