Vista-Ready Products for the Holidays from Microsoft's Partners Santa will bring no Vista, just Vista-ready products via the Windows Vista logo program	By Marius Oiaga, Technology News Editor 12th of October 2006, 14:52 GMT Adjust text size:


Not a very generous Santa, but the waiting period will not extend past January 2007. And if you cannot upgrade to Windows Vista you can at least raid the stores for Vista-ready PCs, software, hardware and games. The products are bound to catch your eye, since they will be labeled with either the Certified for Windows Vista logo or the Works with Windows Vista logo. Microsoft has revealed at the DigitalLife 2006 that in excess of 250 hardware and software products from over 50 industry partners have received the logo that certifies Vista compatibility. "We are thrilled that so many of our industry partners are working with us to bring Certified for Windows Vista software and devices to market this holiday season," stated Mike Sievert, corporate vice president of Windows Client Marketing at Microsoft. "This certification helps ensure our customers will have a great experience with these products now, and an even better one when they are using them with Windows Vista. These products will make a great gift for the holidays that gets better with Windows Vista." "Just as we did with the launch of Windows� XP, HP has worked closely with Microsoft to ensure our imaging and printing products take full advantage of the capabilities of Windows Vista," said Greg Wallace, senior vice president of marketing for the Imaging and Printing Group at HP. "HP will be a top provider of products ready for Windows Vista, offering more than 450 compatible imaging and printing products once Windows Vista is available on the market."
