A recent announcement from a Microsoft executive in charge of Windows should discourage you from switching to Vista if you haven't already. Bill Veghte has urged companies who haven't made the switch yet or are in the process of switching to go straight to Windows 7. The Release Candidate was released earlier this month, and should be completed in August. If it follows a similar schedule as Windows XP, an October release will be likely. With the April 2014 cutoff for Windows XP support and the amounts of positive feedback about Windows 7 up to this point, most companies would probably be better off to just skip Vista altogether. I for one can't wait to see Windows 7 pop up on the MSDNAA.
