  • eBook Synopsis
    Vista, the next Windows operating system, is here. Vista migration is not a question of “if” you migrate, but a matter of “when” and “how” you migrate. Whether you transition to Vista with one major migration project or you migrate gradually with hardware refresh, you need an organized process and the right migration tools. How should you proceed? The Definitive Guide to Vista Migration provides a detailed roadmap for organizations of all sizes, with an emphasis on best practices that will help you manage a successful Vista migration and implement standardized systems management for ongoing IT success.
