Microsoft admits "high impact issues" in Vista -- SP1 coming

Microsoft has admitted -- in a roundabout way -- that Vista has "high impact issues". It has put out a call for technical testers to participate in testing of Service Pack 1, due out later this year, which will address "regressions from Windows Vista and Windows XP, security, deployment blockers and other high impact issues."

It"s hard to know whether to be reassured that Service Pack 1 is coming, and thus that there"s now a sensible timeframe for considering deployment of Vista within businesses, OR to be alarmed that Microsoft is unleashing an OS on the world with "high impact issues" remaining in it.

In other news there"s a battle raging over the top 10 reasons to get / not to get Vista. (And a rebuttal.)
