I find that odd, but I feel confident when something like Ubunt is delayed, the 6 weeks will mean 6 weeks more of solidifying the release.

Unlike vista which gets delayed years, and features that where originally promised got removed.

Still looking forward to Vista as well though, but a bit fed up with it already, and I havn't even tried it.

They might decide to make a version for portable devices like Windows CE, make it look like Windows ME & give it the stability of the Windows NT family. They could call it Windows Vista - Cement.

439931 2006-03-26 04:32:00 Like previous statements - it was to be expected...

I agree Win2K or WinXP do everything required at this point in time - the only good thing will be the flashy interface / programming possibilities under WinFX but if that means a CPU + RAM + VGA (basically whole PC) upgrade then I will give it a miss (for a while)...

If you've got that sort of money go for it and get caught up in the inevitable bug/compatibilty problems tidle wave :)

The last time I bought an OS (OEM) I had a choice of Win2000 and WinXP - I'm sure glad I bought Win2K as WinXP wasnt any good until SP1 (SP2? lol)!

So my advice - wait for Vista SP1 :) :) :lol:
