It will happen at some point because if you try to buy a new machine, _most_ of them come with Vista installed. It won't be very long before they _all_ have Vista installed.
Microsoft would be ecstatic if that would happen. :) But frankly, I don't see it really happening in next 2 years. Even win 2000 is supported until 2011, so I wouldn't expect Vista total domination so soon.
Funny - it looks like sound thinking to me, since the fast PHP binary isn't supported by the platform otherwise.
It is, yo just need to install one other components. The idea of component dependency wasn't born yesterday.
... that won't run out of the box.
If you provide right installer, they would. If not, you'd have to install 1 (one) small binary. Is it really that big a deal? If it is, there are a number of offerings that would solve it for you, many for $0. But we probably wouldn't distribute them from php.net.
