Yesterday ActiveWin had the
exclusive of Windows Vista's official release date. Today, Microsoft confirmed all that by updating its release schedule and
making an official press release.
"Microsoft today confirmed that Windows Vista, the next generation of the Windows client operating system, is on target to go into broad consumer beta to approximately 2 million users in the second quarter of 2006. Microsoft is on track to complete the product this year, with business availability in November 2006 and broad consumer availability in January 2007."

This is very good news as far as I can see...

Now Ubuntu (and other Windows-switching/newbie friendly distros) will have time to roll out another full release before Windows Vista's available. If Linux ever has a chance of taking a good chunk out of MS's dominance, now is the time!
