Some amusing news this week from the world of MSFT.

First off it is announced that Windows Vista is being delayed a few
months until 2007, after the crucial holiday season
(http://www.activewin.com/awin/comments.asp?HeadlineIndex=34083&Group=1)
.  The same day it is announced that the Windows development group is
being reshuffled with a new person in charge who is apparently known for
being a hard-ass (http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1941940,00.asp).
Then it is announced that Office 2007 also won't be released until 2007,
though apparently they're going to release it early for some business
customers
(http://www.betanews.com/article/Microsoft_Pushes_New_Office_into_2007/1
143216364).  Lastly, it is also rumored that MSFT is pulling in top
developers from other teams to rewrite up to 60% of Vista as part of the
department shake-up (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=30516).
