A) Vista will also have consumer appeal, although perhaps not as much as previous releases of Windows. With Vista, Microsoft is getting closer to what it has always promised: an intuitive, easy-to-use, graphical interface. Design and organization are better than XP and data is easier to search.
B ) But, despite its long delay, Vista is not a fundamental change to the Windows we know and very occasionally love. There is no imperative reason to upgrade. Given the Internet’s disruptive effect on how people use computers, Vista may mark the point when Microsoft’s operating system monopoly, or at least the importance of that monopoly, begins to slip away.
C) Since the launch of its Windows 3.0 operating system in 1990, Microsoft has grown used to being master of all that it surveys, and its dominance looks set to continue with tomorrow’s launch of Vista, the latest update to Windows. But Micros oft now has some interlopers to worry about: Google, open-source software and the Internet.
D ) Microsoft is not threatened directly: computers still need Windows to function and it will be hard to displace. But users will not upgrade so often and competitors will be able to chip away at Microsoft’s dominance. The open-source Linux operating system, which can be freely used and modified, has taken some market share, particularly for use on servers.
E ) All of this is good news for consumers. Those who want the improved features can upgrade to Vista. And those who do not want them have, for the first time in a decade, a realistic choice. The vista looming for Microsoft is one of competition and change.
F ) The launch of Vista is a big deal for the computer industry. Personal computer manufacturers such as Dell, chip manufacturers such as Intel and Samsung and makers of every computer-related peripheral from manuals to mice rely on Windows updates that persuade users to upgrade machines. In the five years since the release of Windows XP— the longest gap Microsoft has ever left—the PC industry has suffered.
G ) The danger for Microsoft is that, as people do more on the internet, the desktop computer and its operating system become less relevant. Satisfactory web browsing needs a high-speed internet connection but not much desktop computing power, nor a powerful operating system.
