Microsoft has revealed a general release date for its upcoming operating system Vista - 5 December, 2006. Speaking to IT professionals, parliamentarians and senior law-enforcement officers at the Parliament and Internet conference in London on Thursday, Microsoft revealed its release plans. "We will officially launch Vista, Microsoft Office 2007 and Exchange 2007 on 5 December," said David Hipwell, a Windows client sales professional at Microsoft. On a very, very related note, the EC says that Vista will not be delayed due to regulatory issues. Also, the Shell: Revealed weblog has an item explaining why Aero Basic looks the way it looks. Update: ZDNet has removed the release date story, and since they are being rude by not offering an explanation, I have no idea what is going on.

> Of course there will be folks with older hardware who like Aero and will have to use Basic
And those dumb people will upgrade their hardware, so processors and mobo prices will go down!!
Come on SmallSoft, release this Vista crap! Oblige dumbs to upgrade their boxes! I would like to try SATA hard drives without spending too much money!
