Dear Paul,

                 As many of you know, we announced the business availability of the Windows VistaT operating system and the 2007 release of Microsoft Office yesterday in New York City. The Windows Vista Beta Team would like to thank each of you for the incredible contributions you have made over the past 16 months!!!

Windows Vista is the product it is because you, our valued beta testers, gave us such exceptional feedback. 

At this time, we would like to announce a few opportunities that will begin in the near future that may be of interest to you.

Windows Early Feedback - To submit early suggestions and design feedback to make the next version of Windows the best release yet, please complete the opt-in survey. The Windows early feedback program is being initially offered only to Vista beta program participants. This program will allow you to submit and vote on suggestions for the next version of Windows.

Again, our warmest thanks and congratulations on helping us ship the best OS yet!! Regards, The Longhorn/Windows Vista Beta Team

Innovation at Work

Microsoft Vista: Companies Can Wait

McGraw-Hill is an old media company that still thinks in terms of paper, bindings and shipping boxes.

Reading the Press reports of the Business Launch of Windows Vista, 2007 Office System and Exchange Server 2007 it’s apparent they were written by people who are resistant to change.

Increased productivity and collaboration with easy access to information will lead to innovation in many different fields of endeavor.

Big businesses with volume licensing agreements with Microsoft will be upgrading to Windows Vista as they refresh every laptop in the field. The Teams that move early to Windows Vista will be more productive and in business a competitive advantage is always an incentive.

Scientific research, business analytics, economic speculation, entertainment and media have all reaped tremendous benefits thanks to the digitization of information and the innovation is just begining.

The Windows Vista era has arrived, blow out your candles old media, the internet is lit by lightning.
