It will be released in sumemr 2006 to about 2 million users.  The broad public will get it in January 2007.\n\n\nMicrosoft dropped a bombshell yesterday with a press release that says: "Microsoft Corp today confirmed that Windows Vista, the next generation of the Windows® client operating system, is on target to go into broad consumer beta to approximately 2 million users in the second quarter of 2006. Microsoft is on track to complete the product this year, with business availability in November 2006 and broad consumer availability in January 2007."

I am running Vista Beta2, and are very satisfied with the whole consept. I would recommend it for all. The biggest change that is the security issues,which you may change. The desktop is great!

Official Windows Vista is not released yet. But some magazines permitted to evaluate the beta version. They said, Vista has a lot of good enhancement. But, requires more powerfull hardwares.

Windows Vista is the next version of Microsoft Windows operating system, superseding Windows XP. It was previously known by its codename Longhorn, after the Longhorn Saloon, a popular bar in Whistler, British Columbia (see the other Microsoft codenames). The name "Vista" was unveiled on July 22, 2005. According to sources, the scheduled release date for Windows Vista is currently July 23, 2006. That release date is only scheduled for PC vendors so that systems will be made Vista-ready before Christmas. The general public availability is projected to be around late October to early November 2006, five years after the release of Windows XP, making this the longest time span between releases of desktop versions of Microsoft's Windows operating system.\n\nWindows Vista has many new features such as an updated graphical user interface called Aero, improved searching technology, a number of new security features, and completely new networking, audio, print, and display engines. Vista also aims to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network using peer-to-peer technology, making it easy to share files, password settings, and digital media between computers and devices. Windows Vista also has an entirely new development API, called WinFX, based on the .NET framework, which aims to make it significantly easier for developers to write high-quality applications than with WinFX's predecessor, Win32. In many ways, as Bill Gates has said, Windows Vista is the broadest and biggest update since Windows 95, which was released over ten years ago.\n\nWindows Vista will carry the version number 6.0 (Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 being Windows NT versions 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2, respectively).\n\nWindows Server "Longhorn", the successor to Windows Server 2003, is also under development, and will be based on the Windows Vista codebase. It is expected to be released in the first half of 2007.

Nowhere. You are not a webmaster or a technician.  So you will have to wait a Buy Vista when it comes out later on this year.

in correction to the previous post,\nwindows vista is out and available for testing aproximately 2months ago i was looking on windows update and saw an arcticle on vista\nit had released 100,000 downloads of the new software for anybody looking to be a beta tester, all 100,000 copies are gone now soif you want it you will have to obtain it illegaly...\nin my recomendation you should wait til the final release of vista as it is likely to have less bugs and have been updated been made more user friendly.\nwhat i can tell you is they are no longer using the standard start bar navigation.

When you are ready to buy a new system, go to www.stupidcheapcomputers.net.  I buy all of my stuff from them, and everything is Vista ready.\n\nMicrosoft is about to release its latest operating system, Vista, in January.  It’s going to make all of these “bargain” computers nothing but JUNK as soon as it’s released.  The reason that you are seeing so many cheap systems on the market right now is because a lot of them CAN’T RUN Vista and the merchants are trying to dump them as hard and fast as they can before Vista shows up and everyone learns what a piece of crap they were sold for $500 (or whatever).\n\nAnyway, I bought a complete, new system from stupidcheapcomputers.net with a warranty for LESS than it would cost me to build it myself or order a custom one from the manufacturer.  You can use my frequent buyer code: ATX926.  That will get an additional 10% discount at checkout.\n\nI have NEVER had any problems with anything that they have sold me and their customer service is outstanding.  Those guys blow my mind.\n\nGood luck!

They haven't "officially" released Vista out to a world wide beta.  If you want to get a copy, you will have to use some of the "black market" methods.

If by SP3 you mean Service Pack 3, that my friend will not be released until 2007.  Yes, Vista will be out before Windows XP SP3 is.

At the moment WIndows Vista will be release this year to the corporate market (sometime in Dec 2006), however for the consumer it will be release early next year.  As for when it'll be shipped with new PC, it will be about the same time.\n\nThe question of whether or not to wait, is up to you.  Normally what happens is that various companies (not all of them), one or 2 months before the release of a new MS operating system, will also issue free upgrade vouchers, this is so that they can continue to sell what they have now.  So you can either wait for Vista to be released, or you can buy a new PC maybe next month with one of those company's that offer the free upgrade.  The choice is yours.\n\nHope this helps.
