U.S. markets recover from steep losses
REDMOND, Wash., March 22 (UPI) -- U.S. software giant Microsoft Corp. is delaying until early next year the general release of its next-generation operating system.
Windows Vista will be made available to consumers in January 2007, the company said Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Vista is "on target to go into broad consumer beta to approximately 2 million users in the second quarter of 2006 ... with business availability in November 2006."
"We strongly support Microsoft's decision to prioritize quality in determining the schedule for Windows Vista," said Todd Bradley, executive vice president of the Personal Systems Group at Hewlett Packard. "A January launch of Windows Vista allows us to execute in a consistent way throughout the holidays."
