I read the article..and it took me back..just a short time back.Vista was late..the promised land was not
on the horizon.The Media pontificated..and made many comments about Vista not having many of the
promised bits..where was? etc etc.
Microsoft was in turmoil..must get it out..it arrived..less many parts discussed by the media..it was bunged into
many as yet unsold PCs..vouchers handed out..to allow upgrades from XP..you name it..they did it.
Could it be that Vista was provided to the gullible public as a "finished" product so that deadlines were [nearly] met
whilst in secret work carried on [in Bills garage] with Vista????
Is Windows 7 really the finished Vista?
This seem the only way that a "new" O/S could be presented to the US Gov in such a short period?
Or am I too sceptical....?
