Predictions for Windows Vista
After spending years in development, Microsoft’s latest operating system has finally arrived on retail shelves. Windows Vista is Microsoft’s most widely anticipated software release — and the most important OS upgrade — since Windows 95. The company is staking its entire future on Vista, a fact evidenced by a $500 million advertising campaign that will spread the Microsoft message to 20 countries.
Now that Windows Vista and its killer app, Office 2007, are available for everyone to buy, we face an open-ended future and one particularly nagging question: What next?
Peer into your own crystal trackball and tell us your prediction for Vista’s first year on Earth. Will it change the world, or just the Fortune 1,000? Will everyday users buy it now or play wait-and-see? Is Steve Ballmer right or really off the tracks? Will Vista trample Mac OS X or vice versa?
