End of last week, the US justice released some of the financial forecasts aiming to evaluate the cost of the "Vista Capable" label glued on computers which were not really able to fully support or deliver all Vista functions. Current figures ranges from 3.92 to 8.52 billions USD, representing the budget required to upgrade the 13.75 notebooks and 5.65 desktop computers purchased between April 2006 and January 2007 in order to allow them to fully run all Vista functions and features.Microsoft will most likely think twice in the future before putting tags on computers, under the pressure of OEM and apparently Intel too, in order to partially foul the customers about the real ability of those hardware to run Vista properly.
