Will Vista make an impact?
,----[ Quote ]
| If you talk to the suppliers of components, manufactures and even the
| average geek, the answer is no, no and no. Worse the buzz surrounding
| Vista is nothing like the buzz that surrounded Microsoft's Windows 95,
| 98, Win NT and even Windows 2000 and XP.
|
| It's possible that some buzz will evolve, but it's beginning to look
| like a pretty standard news story rather than anything like the
| marketing events we've seen in the past. I have to assume that the
| promoters who put on a worldwide show for Windows 95, for example,
| have long since left the company.
