No Vista isn't here, but at least if you buy a new machine now you won't have to pay to upgrade to Vista when it finally does arrive. Yes, that's right, Microsoft announced that new hardware purchases made from October 26th onward will be eligible for a [free upgrade to Windows Vista][1].
Or a nearly free upgrade since the exact process varies somewhat between manufacturers. [NotebookReview][2] has a detailed rundown of what different vendors are offering in terms of rebates.
The upgrade program is good from October 26, 2006 thru March 15, 2007. In some ways there's never been a better time to buy a new machine since you'll effectively get both Vista and XP for the price of one.
