  Microsoft: Windows turns 20
Time: 12:05 EST/17:05 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Todd Richardson

"Windows provides unprecedented power to users today and a foundation for hardware and software advancements of the next few years."

That quote might be right at home in a press release for the upcoming Windows Vista. But it's actually Bill Gates trumpeting the release of Windows 1.0, way back on November 20, 1985.

So how did Microsoft celebrate the Big Day? Well, there hasn't been quite the blowout party that we expected. So far, there's been a mention of the Windows milestone (and much speechifying) as part of the company's 30th anniversary party in September.
