Summary: Novell parrots Microsoft-sponsored cheerleading of Vista 7

NOVELL does not care about the reality behind Vista 7. It fails to understand or recognise Vista-like hype (as per January 2007) and to make matters worse, Novell promotes Windows Vista [1, 2] and now Vista 7. The argument is posted by a PR participant (senior solutions manager) and it is ludicrous. In attempts to advance Novell itself, it says:

Today, Microsoft unveils Windows 7, which promises to be one of the industry’s biggest product launches. Analysts forecast that Windows 7 will show significant adoption over the next few years. For example, IDC is forecasting that 177 million units of Windows 7 will ship by the end of 2010.

IDC said the same thing about Windows Vista when Microsoft contracted them to say this. Where is Novell living and why is it perpetuating such paid-for myths? Even Microsoft's CEO recently contradicted this. ⬆
