The Redmond, Washington-based company indicated that the final release
dates of Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005, code-named Yukon, had
been put back when it announced pricing and packaging details last
month. Microsoft had been saying that the products would ship in the
summer, but changed the timing to the second half of the year.

Dragging out the final delivery could give Microsoft rivals an
opportunity to displace SQL Server, said Noel Yuhanna, an analyst at
Forrester Research.

"It is an impact to customers, because they've been planning for the
Yukon release for many years," Yuhanna said. "Customers may have to look
at other [databases] if Microsoft doesn't deliver on time."
