Microsoft are working to resolve Windows Vista incompatibility issues; with the launch of the public beta of a program suite; designed to help businesses run ‘legacy’ software on versions of the Windows Vista OS.
Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V)
Catchy name eh? Anyhow, here’s what you can expect from the public beta of Microsoft MED V
Incompatibility of legacy applications with newer versions of Microsoft Windows can often delay enterprise upgrades to the latest version of Windows.
Testing and migrating applications can be time consuming, and meanwhile users are unable to take advantage of the new capabilities and enhancements offered by the new OS. By delivering applications in a Virtual PC that runs a previous version of the OS (e.g., Windows XP or Windows 2000), administrators can remove the barriers to OS upgrades, and deal with testing and migration of incompatible applications after the OS upgrade.
