[Luna] question

I read this morning that Vista will be released Jan 30.  So should we have 
the event before or after?
I've mentioned it before, and I'll mention it again, I have about 100 
mandriva discs.

So...  What's everyone think of Vista?

think it will be the killer OS to suck the life out of everything or?

My take is that we will see in the spring a huge number of customers 
moving to it...  What this creates is opportunity to get the Linux story 
out there since if a customer has to change, they might as well look at 
other options. 

This said, should LUNA do any activities around the launch to educate 
people about other choices and conduct demonstrations for small business 
owners etc?  Excellent opportunity for any consulting folks out there 
looking to target small business in the area.
