Look what I found

[Scott Corbett]

For those who are resisting Vista, Microsoft is moving you toward it  
by marketing moves.  I hope it doesn't affect the Panorama schedule.

Here's a clip from Computer World from last week regarding the  
beginning of the end of Windows XP:
... XP is the most widely used operating system on the planet, and its  
long-delayed successor, Windows Vista, is not proving to be  
universally popular. The companies that make up the enterprise market  
for Windows are dragging their feet about upgrading, and on the  
consumer side there are signs of a rebellion against Vista.

Microsoft has already made changes in its timetables. Last year, the  
company extended the sales life cycle -- the time during which PC  
manufacturers and system builders could sell computers with XP  
installed -- to June 30, 2008. It will stop selling XP altogether on  
Jan. 31, 2009.
