Well Microsoft’s newest tactic is going to make Vista look pretty bad.
The apparent decision to allow OEM computer sellers to offer disks that downgrade installations of Windows Vista to XP until the end of July 2009 clearly bumps up against the period when Windows 7 might be released.
Originally the deadline was January 2009.
Long Live XP!

 Check this, this here is Windows 7, the successor of Windows Vista.
At first glance, Windows 7 maintains the streamlined look of Vista, but appears more muted — even Windows XP-like.
Mostly, Microsoft seems to be focusing more on functionality, possibly in a bid to put some distance between Windows 7 and the criticisms which have dogged Vista.
Microsoft seemed to have listened to the criticisms and have fine tuned Windows Graphical experience and other features.
The official release of Windows 7 should be next year.
