It is scheduled for availability on Jan 30. That is the launch day for
consumer editions. The Business edition released on Nov 30 for enterprise
customers.

You didn't show that such a promise was made in the old thread and you can't
show it now.
Vista is available, but of course it is not available to all.
Just because your narrow definition of available means you should be able to
pick it up at Futureshop, does not mean others should comply with your
personal definitions.
Vista is easily available to you now, subscribe to TechNet or MSDN.
Or wait like most everyone else.

That sounds like a factual statement.
It Vista does publically release as stated, does that mean we can call you a
liar as you suggest others are liars?

And it is, I am running Vista Ultimate RTM here, did he guarantee EVERYONE
would have it this year, or just guaranteed it this year? Big
