Looks like it will not relesed this year. Do you think anyone are willing to upgrade to new OS? No. XP still have a few years to go. Microsoft just stopped the support for Windows 98. That's 7-8 years till now.

I heard that Windows Vista will be released around September and October this year, anyway, what we need to do is to wait.

I love Windows XP and I don't want to upgrade to Vista. Does anyone know if Windows Update will still work with XP?

I've gotten a peek at teh New Windows Vista, and it's doesn't seem that bad. However, I am probalbly going to install Linux, I like it much better. One thing that really sucks is that Halo 2 is coming out for Windows Vista , o well.

I saw Windows Vista at an Internet Cafe. But only on screen, I didn't use it though so I dont know if it is better than Windows XP or not.
