I understand that the retail sale of Win7 has ended but OEm's can put 7 on new machines for another year.
I think they changed their mind about that, no clear cut decision yet.
Windows 8 will be a messy business with businesses that own thousands of desktops. I used to work with one, not in the Windows team though. I saw their miserable life every time there was a rollout, and that with XP and hardware upgrades alone.
Corporate rollouts are a whole different ball of wax. When I was in that business we set up a whole duplicate test environment including the Unix database servers so we could test every application that was being run on the thousand PC's in our environment. Major headache but the risk of a problems was far to great to not check everything including the operating system rollout itself.
Glad I'm out of there.
