Amazon starts taking pre-orders for Windows Vista

Internet retailer Amazon.com has jumped the gun and started taking pre-orders for Microsoft's long delayed Windows Vista Operating system offering versions of the product from $100 to $399.

Although Microsoft has yet to announce a formal launch date or price for its OS, the online retailer has said that estimated on informal conversations with Microsoft and others in the computer industry it feels the date is the most likely.

Microsoft has repeatedly postponed the release of Windows Vista, which is already 5 years in the making. But they have in the past suggested that corporate customers would get copies in November while consumer customers would have to wait until the new year.
