Cooper on Business Adoption of Windows Vista  

,----[ Quote ]
| I'm of the opinion that neither is going to happen. My bet is that we're 
| waiting for either licensing changes from Microsoft over Select customers, or 
| some new killer application that is only available on Vista (and which has no 
| existing Windows XP customers). The licensing changes are extremely unlikely, 
| given the back-peddling Microsoft has already done with OEMs. So can you 
| imagine a killer business application that won't be made available for 
| Windows XP users? Neither can I.

| [...]
| 
| I can almost guarantee that businesses' adoption of Windows XP Professional 
| was considerably faster than adoption of Vista has been, or is ever likely to 
| be. But then, making that comparison wouldn't send the message that 
| Microsoft's PR machines would like sent about Vista, would it?

Would You put Your Life in Vista's Hands?
