I think this could be a mistake for Microsoft. Vista (I use a mix of XP and Vista myself) is not as useable or as fast as XP. Currently my two year old tablet PC is faster, at most basic tasks, than a brand new high spec PC running Vista business.
There is also a lot of business software that will not run on Vista, so companies will have to ‘downgrade’ which will add to their IT costs.
