Microsoft releases Windows Vista release candidate 1

Software giant Microsoft has finally release the first release candidate of their upcoming Windows Vista operating system to limited beta testers.

This is one of the major achievements for the company as they plan to ship the operating system on its currently announced schedule. Vista already has seen multiple delays.

Microsoft plans to make this release widely available to other testers from next week.

The feedback received on this release would decide on whether Microsoft needs to release another release candidate version in the coming months.

The company is scheduled to deliver Vista to big business clients in November and to consumers in January. However, the release can be delayed if they face major problems in these release candidate editions.
