Microsoft unveil Vista

Watch the report

It's been five years in the making - and is two years overdue - but today Microsoft will finally unveil "Vista", its much-hyped new operating system for PCs.

Microsoft says the new programme has hundreds of improvements on its older software, with enhanced graphics, multimedia options, and security systems.

The company predicts it will sell 90 million copies in the first year - although it won't be available to consumers until after Christmas.

Critics say Microsoft has been slow to react to the faster-changing world of the internet, and that Vista is much scaled down from its original plans.

We spoke to Sue Hogg from Microsoft, and asked her why companies should buy Vista?
