Vista Migration in a year ? Hmmmmmm...

In this week's IT Week magazine there's an article which quotes Dell saying that "businesses should expect a migration to Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system to take up to three years" for firms without current plans. This means that if we started planning the Vista rollout now, it could be 2010 before we see the migration completed ! The article argues that the application testing and packaging phase of a Vista migration, and the end-user training, can take up to a year (this includes remedial work required for the 20 percent of applications which currently do not work under Vista). Better start now !!
