Microsoft has finally revealed the much anticipated details of its program to let customers who buy a PC that is Windows Vista capable over the holiday season upgrade to the new operating system.
Microsoft officials have said they are on track for a release of Vista to volume license business customers in November, and to consumers in January 2006.
The new initiative, known as the Express Upgrade to Windows Vista and Microsoft Office Technology Guarantee program, will be in effect from October 26, 2006 to March 15, 2007 and will be managed in two different ways: by PC manufacturers where the operating system is preloaded, and by Microsoft from system builders.
