Microsoft debuts Vista in marketing blitz
Microsoft Corp. rolled out Windows Vista at retailers in 70 countries on Tuesday, delivering a PC operating system that aims to better manage the explosion of digital media and protect users from the dangers of the Internet.
Vista, which required a $6 billion investment from Microsoft, will be installed on more than 100 million PCs worldwide, according to research reports. Gates strayed from the technology of the product to proclaim that Vista's capabilities would be used to put online Leonardo da Vinci's famous Codex Arundel and Codex Leicester notebooks, making available the artist's drawings, mirror writing and theories to the public. The Codex Arundel is held at the library, while Gates owns the Codex Leicester after he paid $30 million for the manuscript in 1994.
