The Coundown to Windows Vista and the 2007 Microsoft Office System is nearly over, so this week will sure to be one of the most important weeks in Microsoft’s history, as it finally releases Windows Vista and Office 2007 to the consumer market.

However is a new Windows and Office launch still a big deal? Is Windows Vista enough of a leap forward to repel the advances of OS X and Linux? Has Microsoft really cracked security?

Well I beileve so, but who know’s what will happen in the not so distance future, so I guess will just have to wait for and see what happens in the months to come.

And of course Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates will be in London tomorrow (Tuesday) for the Windows Vista consumer launch before flying up to the Microsoft Government Leaders’ Conference in Scotland, so hopefuly he can give some great words about Windows Vista and Office 2007.
