Vista Launch Date Announced

Windows on Wednesday announced that their new operating system, Windows Vista, will be released on 30 November 2006, reports "The New York Times". Vista will, however, only be available to businesses at first. The consumer version will be available to the mainstream public in January 2007. The exact release date is rumored to be 30 January, according to iTWire.

The November release of Vista — "the first new release of a Windows operating system since 2001" , has been dubbed a "worldwide release", which will also include the launch of the new Office 2007 and Exchange Server 2007 software. Microsoft's CEO, Steve Ballmer, will attend the US launch at the Nasdaq stock exchange and Marriott Marquis in Manhattan, New York.
Microsoft originally intended to release Windows Vista before the end of this year, but then in March of this year announced a delay of the consumer version until January 2007.
