- It is no secret that MS licensing is a nightmare for corporations. The complexity of their licensing and the high prices charge for version upgrades is one of the primary reasons Vista adoption has been so slow. It is my understanding that many organizations have allowed their agreements to expire. If MS cannot get them back on board then Windows 7 will not be the success they are hoping for.
