Vista - Coming out

Does anyone know when windows vista coming out to buy??

Probably in January for retail sales, although you might get pre-installed
Vista on new computers before Christmas.

RC1 is out soon. Pre-RC1 is out right now if you want to give it a test run.
Pre-RC1 runs very well:

I got something in e-Mail about microsoft offering 'discounts' around
christmas time for Vista purchases. That would tend to indicate it's going
to be out before then...
