Vista has now been held back from release by ANOTHER 6 MONTHS. So atm, you're looking at a mid-2007 release, and what Server 2k8 for Longhorn:Server which is keeping the 200? style.

I was reading through a new blogs and it is to be reckoned that Vista is the new ME. Ouch for Microsoft! lol

Microsoft are totally stupid. How many billions have they spent on development? Think about how much they have spent on anti-development oh lord! Apple will release 10.5 before Vista, in this case.

Yeah. do you agree with the ME comment?

LOL, won't this make 6 or 7 years without a new MS OS?

I guess Vista will be released when Beta 2 time limit expires, June 1st, or whatever it was. Otherwise that leaves a few people in the dark.

yeah, what about RC1?

LOL, maybe it's just a big illusion created by Microsoft to make you think they're going to release a new OS so people don't move to other OSes, but infact they're not.

Oh yeah, it''ll be nearly 6 years when its released. XP was released in Oct 2001.

Didn't it use to be one every 2 years?

1993, 1995, 1998, 2000, 2001

About 2-3 years yeah

2, 3, 2, 1, 6.... The current OS has the same development time as the last 3 put together.

Yep, and its the ME of NT

It can't be [i:749499c2e1][b:749499c2e1]THAT[/b:749499c2e1][/i:749499c2e1] bad, can it?

Hmm, not really. Wait, YES.

OMG! Save us now!

From what?

The (very) slow train crash that is Vista, according to you.
