Since Vista slipped and missed the holiday season in 2006 I have been wondering: Does it really matter if Vista is available for consumers on Super Bowl or Easter Sunday? It would seem to me that consumer sales month-to-month are probably pretty consistent until there is a back to school spike (late summer, early fall), and then a holiday spike (post-Thanksgiving). - Michael Cherry Quotes

It is unconscionable that Microsoft has not set the hardware requirements, and pointing to the logo [doesn't help] because you have to be an electrical engineer to understand that. - Michael Cherry Quotes

At the moment, the best thing will be to wait until you go into a store and see Vista actually running on it. But that's a year away, isn't it? - Michael Cherry Quotes

Although Microsoft has stated that customers want predictable releases, they have made no effort to make the availability of service packs predictable. Service packs, which are typically loaded with features are totally random events that IT cannot plan for. Because they contain hot fixes and security updates, customers have to roll them out. So I don't anticipate a quick update to Vista. - Michael Cherry Quotes

In general I am not as pessimistic as Gartner, but I am not as optimistic as Microsoft. I am a little concerned about some of the predictions based on the software (builds) we are seeing now?each build is more stable than the previous build?but there is still a long ways to go. If we don't see substantial stability improvements in May when we get Beta 2 then I will be worried. - Michael Cherry Quotes
