    Windows 7 should be out for Christmas


    Microsoft promises release to manufacturing by October

    The company confirmed in a webcast today that Windows 7 will be released to manufacturing (RTM) three years after the RTM version of Vista was released. Vista went RTM in October 2006.

    "The goal for Windows 7 RTM is to be three years after Windows Vista RTM," said the company in response to a question.

    If it is true, that means there will be another Beta release?

    I'm hoping they will have some type of program for folks that purchased Vista recently. If not, I will have to delay the change over for some time.

    If MS is smart, they will wait this out... my 2 cent prediction would be next year, with the availability to preorder at xmas. This thing isnt making the stores before the start of the next school year to push it thru student pc's. Not enough time to even ship it to schools to put in libraries. Not too mention the global economy. It really wouldnt pay for MS to push this OS and hurry it up for no reason... Best time would be around next spring, after ppl get their taxes and the economy starts to turn around, and ppl by then will have the need to upgrade their pcs by then, or atleast be in the position to even think that way. Also, MS still has a way to go with this OS. I think we are all a bit awed with this BETA... a little star struck in my opinion. Yes it has great potential, but so did longhorn...
