Interesting read at

I hear that corporations are staying away from Vista in droves. Even the
geeks are saying away.

When XP came out, the corporate world, big and small, flocked to it. Now
they're holding their noses for Vista and very many have not upgraded their
systems from Office 2003 or even Office 2000.

It took Microsoft how long to get the major bugs out of XP? Two years? Most
of us will be dead and buried before they get Vista stabilized.

Lose the corporate AND the vast majority of the consumer ("power user")
market, and you're in trouble. Lose the geeks and you're in SERIOUS trouble.
