If Microsoft think the business uptake of Vista "meets expectations" then they must have had some very low expectations.

The only people I've encountered who don't wipe Vista off a new PC and put on XP are non-technical users who don't have access to a copy of XP.

Just yesterday a busness associate was horrified how long it took to backup a 400MB .PST file to a USB 2.0 pen on Vista from his new laptopm when he saw the mere seconds it took to copy back onto his three year old desktop PC running XP.
