Business Review: Controversial Windows "Vista" name


After 5 years pause ( longest period between Microsoft Windows' releases) Microsoft is finally releasing its Beta 1 version of Windows Vista today...
The new operating system is promising to be more secure and enhanced graphics and 50% faster booting ( this seems to be the most interesting for me, as I dont trust microsoft claims over enhancing security ).
The name Vista is contravesial, as some non-profit organizations are using the name already as well as a software developing company ( vista.com ).Both the organizations as well as the software company are unhappy with Microsofts new Windows' name and you might see this argument developing towards court cases.
