Microsoft executive — “We set ourselves up”
By Jason Mick – February 29, 2008
One of the most iconic images of Microsoft’s Windows Vista launch in January 2007 was the small “Windows Vista Capable” stickers on computers months before, reassuring customers that when the new operating system came out, their computers could be updated to the latest and greatest. Unfortunately for the consumer it appears that the capabilities that these stickers promised were intentionally exaggerated to benefit Microsoft and chipmaker Intel. A class action suit filed against Microsoft in April 2007 accused Microsoft of intentionally misleading consumers with the stickers, claiming the “Vista Capable” logos on computers that were anything but. The suit centered around several key points, among which was that the computers sold could not run Windows Vista’s more impressive features such as the Aero user interface, and were left with only a bare-bones skeleton of Vista. The suit forced Microsoft to redefine its definition of what exactly “Vista Capable” meant, which included Microsoft’s addition of a disclaimer that some of the PCs bearing the sticker could not run significant Vista features such as Aero.

Microsoft Corp said on Thursday it plans to cut prices of its Windows Vista operating system sold at retail outlets in a move aimed at pushing customers to switch to the newest version of Windows. The world’s largest software maker said it plans to lower retail prices for Vista in 70 countries later this year in tandem with the shipment of the first major update to Vista, known as Service Pack 1 (SP1). Packaged versions of Windows Vista sold at stores and on the Web account for less than 10 percent of all licenses of the dominant Windows operating system that sits on more than 90 percent of the world’s personal computers. Most consumers opt to buy a new PC, which comes preloaded with the latest version of Windows. “We anticipate these changed will provide greater opportunities … to sell more stand-alone copies of Windows,” said Brad Brooks, a Microsoft corporate vice president.
