Redmond’s One Big Vista Mistake?

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

Several years ago, Apple’s Tiger team was under pressure to ship an operating system that would Windows Vista 15.jpgkill Longhorn. Many of the promised features for Longhorn shipped on the Mac’s new Tiger OS. At that time, Longhorn was right around the corner, or so everybody thought.

Now, studying the comments coming out of Redmond, there might be yet another schedule slip in Vista.

"Ballmer admitted recently that one big, wrong decision led to all the Vista delays. They took a "Big Bang" approach and tried to overhaul all of the OS core components at the same time. That strategy eventually led to a fiery development crash." Malcolm Davis’s Blog: Redmond’s One Big Vista Mistake?
