Microsoft, and with Vista
You're right. Even considering inflation, Vista costs more than Windows 95.
But with the greater productivity of Vista, users make more money and,
hence, can pay more. The additional cost is still a lower percentage of
their disposable income than was Win95.
Even so, Vista is not the same product (like Kerosene or nails).
