Desktop vs. Server Virtualization
Microsoft has been investing agressively in server virtualization
Larger market demand for "pure virtualization" on the server
Microsoft has still been investing in client virtualization (though not as agresssively)

Press on Application Compatibility
“Still, one of the major complaints against Vista aside from the lack of drivers and its significantly higher hardware
requirements is its Windows XP compatibility” - ZDNet
“When Windows 7 is released later this year or in early 2010,
many PC users who upgrade will be coming from Windows XP”
- PCWorld
“So XP users, unite: Are you going to clamor for extended
support? Plan for a Windows 7 migration now?”
- IT Knowledge Exchange
“But what if Windows 7 had perfect Windows
XP compatibility?”- ZDNet
