For New Windows, New Requirements

Windows Vista, the upcoming new version of Windows, has been delayed, delayed and delayed again, Microsoft is now aiming to ship it to consumers in January 2007.

The company has taken a P.R. beating with these delays. But I'm with Microsoft here,; they say, better to get it right than to rush out something that's not ready for prime time as explained at For New Windows, New Requirements

Why am I bringing this up now, seven months before Vista? Because you might intend to buy a new computer in the meantime, and you'll be kicking yourself if you buy one now that's not capable of running Vista. You need to think ahead.

So how is Vista looking, now that it's hit Beta version 2? The controversy is already swirling, but I can tell you a few things that you have to look forward to.
