Brad Goldberg Quotations

We are hoping in Windows Vista to dramatically drive this number down so most tasks that users need to complete, they'll be able to compete as standard users. User account control will be one of the most valuable areas for enterprises.

We decided it would be better if you could have a big launch where we're clearly the focus for the whole industry.

We made the decision that it was more important for our customers to improve the security of our existing products than it was to accelerate the introduction of (Windows Vista).

January has emerged as almost a second Christmas, with gift cards, sales, etc. It's a new trend.

Windows Vista is as much, if not more, a business release.

We're encouraging customers to test out the enterprise capabilities, understand application compatibility and look at the technologies included to understand the impact they'll have in their own specific IT organizations.

While there is a lot of cool stuff in the release that consumers will be excited about, Windows Vista is as much, if not more, a business focused release that will provide significant value for business customers.

But it's a different place than Microsoft a few years ago would have wound up.

The exact date will be determined by quality.
