Windows Vista Hits Shelves Today

It’s official, Microsoft’s newest version of Windows, Windows Vista, is on the streets, much to the delight of some technophiles. There were release parties around the country last night as some stores stayed open late to sell the software right after midnight, some of them with door prizes and bags of schwag, and others with quite celebration.

But before you head out to the store to pick up your copy of Vista and head home to install it, you might want to wiegh your options. I’m not a huge fan of tackling a brand new OS the day it comes out, and businesses will probably take a good long time to upgrade their desktop infrastructure to Vista, (the company I’m with now still has a few holdout Windows 2000 machines) but some people are clamoring to upgrade now.
