Microsoft Vista Adoption Will be 2x Faster than XP

October 9th 2006 | Microsoft

Microsoft has high hopes for it’s up-and-coming Vista operating system and is expecting business customers to adopt it twice as fast as any previous release of Windows. It says ten times as many business desktops will be deployed at release compared to any previous Windows version.

Microsoft’s expectations seem at odds with a survey taken in August by Computerworld US, which found that just 17 per cent of IT professionals are considering rolling out Windows Vista in the first year. Forty-one per cent have no plans to roll out Vista, and 35 per cent will begin testing Vista only after it ships.
