---- Judge OKs class action lawsuit over "Windows Vista Capable" labeling

Windows vista is an OS that needs a certain "rating" to used advanced features.

Yes, that's why (I think) they created this labelling program to make it easy for consumers to decide which PC will be able to run new OS. If Microsoft does not know what hardware is needed to run their product, then who does?

IANAL, but I think Microsoft will lose (or settle) it - there were already emails made public where inside Microsoft they wondered if these labels actually work as intended, no doubt more dirt will be found out during discovery process.

As usual in this kind of lawsuit the main winners will be lawyers, while consumers will probably "win" $10 discount voucher off Vista ][.
