Any clue as to when this will be available on new computers in the stores.... I need a new laptop but refuse to buy one with Vista on it?

Linux seems to work just fine for most needs.

Vista with SP1 isn’t bad at all - Microsoft will have a program that gives free upgrades to 7 if you buy your new system within a certain time window - but I don’t know what that window is going to be.

Probably looking at a window of 5-7 months for distributors, however my guess is that MS wants this out by Christmas.
