Windows Vista to be released January 20, 2007

I'm actually amazed this hadn't been posted. I wonder how many people are going to be switching over and just how well the system will work, especially given how long it's been delayed.

I dunno when, if ever. I'll see what kind of complaints it gets, first.

Won't be getting it. Kubuntu does me fine, has a new version out every 6 months, and if I wanted it to could already do all the stuff Vista can without needing such high hardware requirements.

I think I may rebuild one of our old computers downstairs to run on Kubuntu, but I think that I'll leave Mac OSX running on my MacBook

It looks like an improvement to XP, but I don't know... at any rate, OSX makes me very happy. Be interested to see what people think of Vista once it's released, though.

I will probably get it eventually, but I am in no hurry. XP is good enough for me, so there's no reason to change anything.
