Windows Sales of boxed copies of Windows Vista continue to significantly trail those of Windows XP during its early days, according to a soon-to-be-released report. Standalone unit sales of Vista at U.S. retail stores were down 59.7 percent compared with Windows XP, during each product's first six months on store shelves, according to NPD Group. In terms of revenue, sales are also down, but the drop has been less steep, at 41.5 percent.

Vista might be ok to work with for daily home usage, but not for business. Our IT manager is a MS freak and handed out some Vista laptops to some employees, I hear nothing but complains since then. Not only about Vista, but also about Office 2007.

XP with Office 2003 is lightning fast on today's hardware, every user that used Windows 95 with Office 95 can work with it.

Give me one good reason for a company to migrate to Windows Vista.

If you intend of staying with a Windows line of operating system, you'll have no choice before long.
