Reports from MS on the issue necessarily include marketing efforts - by trying to look optimistic. We had numbers on sales posted here in the forum some time ago. And they included those vistas that came with sales of complete machines and thus were unable to be evaded by customers. but fact is that they have time and again requests for machines being sold not with Vista. The separately sold numbers some months ago were reported to be disappointing.

Okay, you love vista, I don't, this debate leads nowhere, so count me out.
