The wife and I saw this announced on the evening news last night:
Microsoft debuts Vista in global marketing blitzI will confess that I know practically nothing about this new operating system but I think that I can predict with some certainty: it'll be a huge pain-in-the-ass much like Windows 95 was when it debuted.NEW YORK (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp rolled out Windows Vista at retailers in 70 countries on Tuesday, delivering a new computer operating system that aims to better manage the explosion of digital media and protect users from the dangers of the Internet.
The world's biggest software maker marked the launch of its first all-new Windows operating system in five years with a marketing blitz, including commercials featuring basketball star Lebron James and appearances by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates on morning and late-night chat shows.
Windows runs on more than 95 percent of the world's computers, and the long-delayed new version is the first major release of a new Microsoft operating system since it introduced Windows XP in 2001.
Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft called Vista the most important release of its dominant operating system since Windows 95 more than a decade ago, when shoppers waited for hours to be among the first to run the new software.
Consumer fanfare of that magnitude seems unlikely since Vista is not the dramatic leap in technology of past releases, but the new Windows could ultimately be just as successful.
I'm thinking that it might be a minor improvement upon the Windows XP system that I'm running currently, but what the main cause of trouble for most people will be this: in order to get the full potential out of Windows Vista, you'll have to have a newer computer system that's capable of running Vista.
And that's just what everyone will want - a new operating system that requires a $2000-plus investment in a new PC.....
