Default Trip to market was a long one for Vista

Kevin Johnson, the head of Microsoft's Windows division, is very clear on this:



"Never ever, ever" — he repeats "ever" six times, pounding the table for emphasis — "ever again."

Microsoft finally completed Windows Vista this month, five years after the release of the version it's replacing. The company's flagship product will never go so long between releases, Johnson and other top Microsoft executives have vowed.



Several delays, the last of which pushed the consumer release of Vista to Jan. 30, blemished Microsoft's reputation and potentially cost the technology industry billions in holiday sales. That came after Microsoft detoured to build better security for Windows XP and removed features in Vista, which is coming out at least a couple of years later than expected.



What went wrong with Vista? And how can Microsoft ensure that building the next version of Windows will be smoother?
