Windows Vista is a critically important upgrade to the software that runs hundreds of millions of PCs world-wide, intended to deliver greater protection from viruses and other Internet-borne attacks and includes features Microsoft says will make PCs easier to use. Expected to filter into businesses and homes over the next year -- it will be offered to consumers in January priced from $199 to $399 -- Vista is a central pillar for Microsoft's overall growth and an engine of the $200 billion PC industry.
