Online, everyone has a view on Vista

Tuesday's announcement that Microsoft is delaying the launch of its much-anticipated Windows Vista has spawned some crowded virtual water coolers.
Around the Web, there are some warning that the new January 2007 release date will put holiday PC sales in serious jeopardy. Others say retailers are better off getting through the holiday mania and other planned Christmastime product launches, so they'll have more time to help customers with the new operating system.
Some are critical of Microsoft, saying the move is disappointing consumers, partners and stockholders. Still others commend the software giant for taking the extra time to launch a solid product right out of the box. And that all just scratches the Net surface.
