Windows Vista is a line of graphical

operating systems used on personal

computers, including home and business

desktops, notebook computers, Tablet

PCs, and media centers. Prior to its

announcement on July 22, 2005, Windows

Vista was known by its codename

"Longhorn". Development was completed

on November 8, 2006; over the following

three months it was released in stages

to computer hardware and software

manufacturers, business customers, and

retail channels. On January 30, 2007, it

was released worldwide to the general

public, and was made available for

purchase and downloading from Microsoft's

web site. The release of Windows Vista comes

more than five years after the introduction

of its predecessor, Windows XP, making it

the longest time span between two releases

of Microsoft Windows.

Windows Vista contains hundreds of new

features; some of the most significant

include an updated graphical user

interface and visual style dubbed Windows

Aero, improved searching features, new

multimedia creation tools such as Windows

DVD Maker, and completely redesigned

networking, audio, print, and display

sub-systems. Vista also aims to increase

the level of communication between

machines on a home network using

peer-to-peer technology, making it easier

to share files and digital media between

computers and devices. For developers,

Vista includes version 3.0 of the .NET

Framework, which aims to make it

significantly easier for developers to

write high-quality applications than with

the traditional Windows API.
