Vista Fundamentals
Amy Stephan, a senior product manager with the Windows client unit, recently spelled out some of the fundamentals of the new Vista operating system, including systems management and deployment features. These include:
Launch applications 15 percent faster than Windows XP does.
Boot PCs 50 percent faster than they boot currently and will allow PCs to resume from standby in two seconds.
Allow users to patch systems with 50 percent fewer reboots required.
Reduce the number of system images required by 50 percent.
Enable companies to migrate users 75 percent faster than they can with existing versions of Windows.
Microsoft staffers have been describing the three “C”s in Vista, which are three baskets of features which form part of the core operating system:
1. The “confidence” basket has all kinds of security and manageability features.
2. The “creative” one contains technologies, such as browse/search/subscribe (Internet Explorer and RSS) and the forthcoming user interface.
3. And in the “connected” basket are features like Meeting Space and synch technology for plugging in wireless devices of all kinds.
