As they prepare for the arrival of Windows Vista™, customers shopping for new PCs or upgrading their hardware now have more comprehensive guidance to aid them in their decisions. Today, Microsoft Corp. announced the launch of the Windows Vista “Get Ready” Web site, the worldwide availability of Windows Vista Capable PCs, the upcoming availability of Premium Ready PCs and the availability of the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor beta. “Customers have many options and choices to make when it comes to buying a PC today. A wide range of form factors, price points and new technologies figure into their decisions,” said Mike Sievert, corporate vice president of Windows® Product Management and Marketing at Microsoft. “With that in mind, Microsoft and OEMs are making it easier to prepare for the arrival of Windows Vista. Customers now have the information they need to get a great Windows XP-based PC today that will deliver rich Windows Vista experiences tomorrow.” | ||

"Ready for Windows Vista" means little. Wait until video cards with Direct X 10 are released or onboard video can support 256-MB DDR2 and Direct X 10. Then the claims may have some real meaning. I'm already sick of the Vista pre-release hype. Companies and consumers will buy a new PC when they need one, not because it is "Vista ready". Only a sucker will buy a new PC today solely because its "Vista ready". The claim could be made by all mfgs for all their commercial PC models,except the low end Dell junk that comes with only 256-MB of RAM.
Its been a long day. Sorry for the trolling. This post was edited by bobsireno on Friday, May 19, 2006 at 12:55. |
