I must mention from the beginning that this article refers to two of the world giants: Microsoft and Google. Microsoft, a.k.a. the software giant because it developed powerful applications, including Windows operating system; Google, codenamed the search giant because it provides the powerful search engine on the internet. Windows Vista is the latest operating system that was designed by Microsoft, one of the most known software developers in the entire world. Microsoft developed the well-known Windows operating system that is probably installed on more than half of the computers from the entire world.

As you probably know, Microsoft is preparing for the celebration of the Windows Vista release scheduled on January, 30. Vista is regarded as the safest and the most secure operating system in the world, providing you well-developed features that will replace all the other programs needed to work on the computer. Vista's security is improved by repairing multiple bugs and security flaws and also by adding an improved firewall with bundled Windows Defender anti-spyware application.

Many companies already reacted to the Vista release by revealing new versions of their solutions or by publishing interesting statements meant to discuss the new operating system's functions.

For example, most of the security companies started developing tools since the Vista RC1 release date, so you should be able to find Vista-compatible well-developed security applications. One of the Linux founders made a statement to criticize the upcoming operating system, saying that the security of the Windows Vista will be soon under the threat of multiple attackers.

Although Google is the provider of the most powerful search engine, the Vista release will probably move all the spotlights on the operating system, an action that damages the search giant's image. So, what can Google do? It can honor the release of Vista with a new doodle… or maybe not? Well, some time ago, there were rumors that Google is planning an operating system. I guess it would be very interesting because using a Google operating system to search on Google and to use services provided by Google will make our life a … Google one. So, there are only 4 days left until the Vista release time. Is Google ready for the celebrations?
