In all seriousness, why is it taking Microsoft so long to release its next-gen. OS that’s supposed to revolutionize the way we compute regularly? The lack of resources (whether monetary or labor intensive) can’t be it. The only rational consensus that outlines Microsoft’s irresponsibility to its users is lack of organization. There couldn’t possibly be another reason (no, security enhancements isn’t it, since the company knows very well that crackers are desperate to rip it apart as soon as it debuts officially). Thinking otherwise is childish.

Unfortunately for OEMs, such as Dell and HP, the shopping rush would be a total bust right before Vista makes its entry. If anything, Microsoft should be working on releasing the OS before time to benefit its partners, and in return, itself to cover the holiday season. Thankfully, according to industry analysts and observers, mainstream computer manufacturers shouldn’t be too worried, since synchronizing Windows Vista as a mainstream product would take joint marketing efforts anyways, and substantiating noticeable sales during the busy season wouldn’t be possible. A breather for OEMs for sure…

As for enthusiasts, it’s not going to make an impact at all. Enthusiasts will invest in Vista despite its delay and the mainstream crowd could care less. In technicality, Microsoft is safe from all ends, but it still doesn’t explain the considerably poor judgment. Quite honestly, Microsoft’s actions in regards to Vista (delays and reduction in features) are sadly irresponsible, distrustful and lame and the company can’t do anything to gain back its credibility, assuming it had any to begin with.
