Perhaps not...
I dont know if you know who DSG are, but they are pretty much one of, if not the, biggest reatiler of its kind in the UK.

They have numerous sub-brands (Currys, Dixons, PC World) and they have a presence in pretty much any reasonably sized town \ suburb.

Furthermore, they've been in business for a very long time.

I wont comment on the success or otherwise in other places, but what you're saying is simply non factual regarding DSG.

Point of fact, I work for the 4th largest company in the world (AIG Insurance), and I can tell you that there are currently NO plans for anything like an enterprise rollout of Vista at this time.

XP does everything we want more than sufficiently, and our software has been built to run on it. I dont see any business benefit to Vista whatsoever that we "need" to have.
