With all these patches that are now flooding windows users for both OS and other microsoft products. Microsoft has put so much effort into actually trying to roll out Vista, that they have committed a mistake only some small businesses are known for: Putting their eggs in one basket. They've let the obvious and numerous flaws from old operating systems stack up with no regard to fixing them save in massive updates, to find a way to push everyone involved in development and patching duties to focus on getting Vista ready for the open market. This is why now, after the announcement of pricing, the proposed features and system requirements, as well as migration costs, that many companies are now looking for other OS solution for future needs. I'm not saying Microsoft will be thrown away as the leading office system, but simply that they won't have the response they expect from customers once Vista has reached it's final retail (yet still incomplete) glory. But at least it make me feel a bit better that big companies can still make amateur mistakes...
