U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman ruled that the consumers may go ahead with a class action lawsuit against the software company Microsoft over “Vista Capable” advertising program, the Associated Press said in a on-line article.
Introduced in 2006, the Vista Capable program was initiated by Microsoft and its hardware partners in order to help the customers to make informed decision when buying a new PC, and to maintain the sales of Windows XP systems during the 2006 holiday season. Windows Vista for consumers was launched in January 2007.
However, the lawsuit claims that the labeling system was 'misleading' because many of those computers were not powerful enough to run all of Vista's features and they could run only the Home Basic version of Windows Vista.
