“Windows Vista is going to be a significant release for all Windows customers, including enterprises, small and medium-sized businesses as well as consumers.”
Al Gillen
“It looks like Microsoft missed the major upgrade cycle from 2004 to early this year. Windows Vista would have been a much better story in 2005 than in 2006, or, realistically, 2007.”
Joe Wilcox
“With Windows Vista, we went back to the drawing board to create a premier platform for audio and video.”
Amir Majidimehr
“What's been revealed of Windows Vista is particularly sad. Defaulting to a mode that requires users to enter an administrative password before they can install programs? A security-enhancing idea, but one that's been around for ages in Apple's Mac OS X. Integrated search? Apple has it now. The Registry? There's no sign of that monstrosity in OS X, but it'll still be around in Windows Vista to drive users nuts. Copying the competition's good ideas and retaining a bad one that you actually did originate: That's innovation!”
Stephen Manes
“The Windows Client division has to tell corporate customers why they want Windows Vista, and why they shouldn't wait until they buy new hardware.”
Rob Helm
“I think [including RSS in Vista] is going to be a very significant milestone. The real onus is on Microsoft to make [using] it a total no-brainer.”
Dave Taylor
“We never said Microsoft has decided [to rebrand RSS], ... It's a year ahead of [Windows Vista] being released and we?re trying to work with the community to get some consensus.”
