It’s Gold: Windows Vista Hits RTM
November 9th, 2006
It has finally happened.
The long wait is finally over. On Wednesday, November 8, 2006, at 11:00 a.m. PST, Microsoft announced that it had released Windows Vista to manufacturing, ending five years of waiting and one of the longest development periods in Windows history. For Microsoft, its partners, and its customers, the lengthy road to Vista concludes with Microsoft shipping the so-called “golden master” version of the product to manufacturing and its closed partners.
