MSFT sees its shadow, five more months of XP
Maybe that should read, Microsoft sees the writing on the wall. In any case, as reported by PC World and just about everybody else, Microsoft announced today that it would continue to sell Windows XP through the end of June, five months longer than previously announced. CMP Channelweb reports that OEMs have six months more than before to ship PCs with XP instead of Vista.
It's clear that even some of the most MicroSkeptic of power users and home users are warming to Vista, but this news shows that the business PC making and business PC buying communities are just not ready to drink this particular Kool-aid.
Businesses thrive on innovation, but also on continuty. Switching to a new platform is disruptive, and if the benefits are not clear, people won't make the jump. The uncertain picture for application compatibility and the plain old hassle are too much for many businesses that see IT as a utility, not a strategic advantage. This grassroots resistance to the wintel campaign of planned obsolescence is encouraging, but it will only slow, not stop, the giants.
In a not very apt analogy, Toyota announced the redesigned 2008 Scion xB this summer. It's now 600 pounds heavier, 12" longer, 3" wider and somewhat less square is shape. The engine has grown from 1.5 to 2.4 liters with 44% more horsepower and a 15% drop in fuel economy. Some people are going to want the new features and appreciate the larger size, but I bet a lot of the people who bought the xB before liked it the way it was. In a comment that might apply as well to XP and Vista, the San Francisco Chronicle says, "...take heart, xB devotees: It's still ugly. And that's a beautiful thing."
