A US survey shows companies are increasingly, if slowly, moving to Vista and Office 2007 The third and last CDW Windows Vista Tracking Poll, performed by Walker Information, shows that Windows Vista is getting some take-up. The number of organisations “evaluating and testing” Vista has increased from 29% in February 2007 to 48%, and “30% of organizations are currently implementing or have implemented Vista,” against 12% last time. Of those using or evaluating, 74% expect to complete the move to Vista during the next 12 months. CDW also says: “Windows Vista is delivering on expected benefits, with nearly 50% of evaluators/implementers reporting performance above expectations on key features.” Of course, we don’t know what they were expecting. If they’ve been reading the hate on the web, they might be surprised to discover that the world’s second most popular operating system is extremely stable and works well.
