MSFT Vista Consumer Delay no Big Deal

It seems that people are thinking that Microsoft delaying Vista Consumer will be bad for the computer industry. I don't think holiday sales will be impacted very much. Most of the people who buy a PC during Christmas will probably get a free upgrade coupon that would come with their PC. I don't think they will have to be stuck with Windows Home for much longer then a month or so.

I think some consumer electronics stores will have a dip in sales but they will probably make them back up in January when people interested in Vista could use their Gift cards to defray its cost. Or if they are real early adopters they can get the Vista Corporate edition which seems to be shipping on time. I think it is no biggie.
