Good News, Bad News

July 2nd, 2008. Filed under: Wednesday's Wonders.

I just read an interesting article at TechCult titled “Microsoft Admits Defeat On Vista.”   You have to admit that when Microsoft’s top guys can’t even get Vista to function properly, there are some problems.  I wrote an article about Vista on June 24th.  This article follows up on why I was whining in my article.  Good News.  Microsoft has decided not to cram Vista down the throats of businesses.  Instead, they are now encouraging users to “fix” Vista PCs by installing XP.  You heard me right.  Businesses can now fix their problems by installing XP.  They’ve now promised support for Windows XP until 2014.  Windows 7 is slated for 2011.  Don’t get too excited.  Bad news.  The rest of us are going to be stuck with the Vista rejects.  As of July first, individuals can no longer buy an XP PC.  Go on over to TechCult and read the entire article.
