Microsoft is obviously pushing Windows Vista very hard. Vista Business and Ultimate versions must be the ultimate in Vista flavors on offer. Then how come MS is making it easy for business users to downgrade to known and dependable XP flavor of the last generation of Windows family!
MS is making it easy for PC box shippers with prepackaged Vista PC's to ship XP discs along with the sytem. They are preactivated, i.e even a call to support to get an activation code would be necessary.Apparently the EULA, end user license agreement has always had that provision. Fujitsu has been the most aggressive among the box movers so far. now others are going to do it too.
Is it just resistance to change? Does not look like though. Looks more like an attempt by enterprises to stick with an old faithful. So what's at stake here! Is it that Vista would need more training time? Or there are reliability, availability related issues? Who knows! Only thing one could be sure of is that MS is being pragmatic about it, though the expected protestation that this does not mean any admission that Vista has any shortcoming is being repeated.
