Tech Link (Industry): The Insider: Microsoft rolls out Windows Vista, the soft drink

Wow, this one is very interesting, a bit on the funny side. I mean, is it one of those act of supreme fanboyism? Maybe. But it sure is nice to have one, and I'm going to save it. I mean, it's like a special edition softdrink, so I'll keep it somewhere safe and hopeful to retain the thing for as long as I can: antique!

You won't find Windows Vista in stores this year -- but on the Microsoft campus, it's already in the refrigerators.

Special-edition cans of Talking Rain sparkling water, sporting the logo for the upcoming operating system, have been stocked among the other free sodas available to the company's employees. It's a promotion for the preliminary version of the program, pointing employees to an internal Windows Vista site.

Presumably, the actual operating system won't be available in lemon-lime.
