Very interesting read ... thanks for posting the link.

The IDC / M$ case for Vista seems slightly reminiscent of the way Bush sold his invasion of Iraq (without the allusion of a mushroom cloud :eek: ). The impact and benefit numbers seem highly inflated. It seems to tout the cost of getting there (new o/s) rather than the benefits of having a new operating system. :rolleyes:
