Microsoft might be ‘softening’ Vista SP1’s WGA anti-piracy procedures but they’re actually very similar to what’s been happening with XP for some time now, stopping most casual copying of retail discs and enabling detection of activation exploits used with pirate copies, in what is Microsoft’s most successful attempt at reducing casual piracy of the OS at the consumer level yet.

Like thousands of other media commentators around the world, in January this year I attended the offical Microsoft launch of Windows Vista. In my show bag of goodies, among the press releases, I found shiny new boxed copies of the Ultimate versions of Vista and Office 2007. Since I didn't have a computer at the time that could run Vista, I loaned my copy to iTWire blogger Sam Varghese for a review. What happened next is most interesting.

Microsoft’s new WGA anti-piracy mode in the upcoming Vista SP1 lets users continue using their newly detected non-genuine copies of Vista, albeit with Aero disabled and hourly reminders, in a major backflip. Will pirates give in and pay for a legal copy of Vista Home Premium at less than half price, or consider moving to Linux or Mac OS X instead?

Just days away from Microsoft’s first year anniversary of Vista Business RTM on Nov 30, the last year has felt like Vista has been in a perpetual beta, just like all those Web 2.0 sites. As SP1 draws near, is the Vista blister finally healing, or should Microsoft scrap the lot as some pundits have advised and go back to XP SP3?

Recently a long time PC user friend dropped a bombshell on me - he had a "c-change" and bought an iMac. A sophisticated Windows user who works for one of the world's largest PC software companies (not Microsoft), he told me he couldn't be bothered with Windows any more, didn't like Vista. What's more, he said many of his colleagues at the office had also gone Mac. What's going on here?  Recent Mac market share statistics are quite revealing.
