This may feel like Groundhog Day for you and Steve Ballmer, but according
to computer and component manufacturers, Vista is not the hotcake that they
were hoping for. The not-so-shiny-shiny-anymore OS is not helping sales at
all and some companies may end with a whole bunch of unsold stuff in their
warehouses.

Take Acer's president, Gianfranco Lanci, who has just said that "PC
makers are really not counting on Vista to drive high demands for the
industry." Or Samsung Electronics, who now says that DRAM demand has
not matched anyone's predictions based on Vista's now failed projections,
something that is being echoed by the industry as a whole.

So forget about Se¤or Gates' words on Vista pushing PC sales. You may want
to punch us, Bill, but apparently those 20 million copies sold are indeed
business as usual. –Jesus Diaz
