Vista Dissed By NIST

That's gotta sting:

"The influential National Institute of Standards and Technology has banned the software maker's Windows Vista operating system from its internal computing networks...
Word of NIST's Windows Vista ban comes a week after InformationWeek revealed that the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration have both imposed similar blackouts on the operating system, as well as on Microsoft Office 2007 and Internet Explorer 7."

Vista's fortunes will rise and fall in large measure on the strength of it's security features. This does not bode well.
