Microsoft shakes up Vista options
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft is tweaking the pricing of its new Vista operating system before the product even hits the market. When the company drops Vista to the retail and consumer market on Jan. 30, it might encounter a very different selling environment than it did five years ago, when it made its last major consumer release.
So the company announced three initiatives that it hopes will encourage consumers to pay for Vista Premium or higher, as well as encourage households with more than one PC to upgrade their equipment to Vista.
