Working with a few companies on Switzerland (French part), I can say no one plan to move Vista...
From 1500 clients, to 250 clients, all are freeze on XP...
The worst for Microsoft, customers will migrate next revision because no more choice from PC builder...
They will go Windows 7 anyway for this reason...
It is not good think, company should migrate to get improvements, at last to improve their security.

As Vista is really doing, and for the public PC, it is a really good think (just think about the more 1'500'000 botnet zombie PC on the world ) if they do not find any better or more reasons...

A lot of "government & education like" are also thinking "open OS" in there. But no one will go, because of too much "Applications support" missing...
I make this
divination: next following upgrade (after 7) will not be any more MS-Windows for some. Part customers will go to VDI & Open OS low cost clients: The combination of VDI + Terminal + SOA (with SaaS & DaaS) will kill the "heavy Windows Workstations"... But don't panic for those love MS, Windows light clients will also be available like WinPE?
So next (r)evolution will really back to "lightweight terminals"? An "Upsizing" after the "downsizing" (for those remember IBM/SNA) Wait and see ?
