So Microsoft pushed Vista's launch into January of 2007.  That's like what, the 15th time they've set a new [later] release date?  And there's now many 'innovative' features shipping with it?  Sorry, I'll get off my soap box here.

But it's interesting how OS releases differ between Microsoft and Apple.  Apple fans tend to be excited, and line up for these releases.  It's a party - not because Apple plays it up that way, but because people want to be a part of it.  Microsoft on the other hand has to try to make a big deal out of it through their marketing department.  The delays don't seem to be winning any fans either.

The Mini-Microsoft blog is extremely disappointed, and calls for the immediate firings of many of the top people in Redmond.  Someone needs to be held accountable, right?  The best part comes in the comments at the bottom.  What appears to be a bunch of Microsoft employees, sound like they're awfully pro-OS X, and not so pro-Vista.  Seems like bad news for MS when it's got employees who are sick of it's incompetent execution, and support the Apple alternative...  (Course these people could be anyone, but it's more fun to assume they are indeed MS employees.)

Oh, and speculation is that 10.5 (Leopard) may be out just before, or around the same time as Vista...if it doesn't get pushed out any more in the next 10 months.
