Windows Seven
posted by Tony on 14th Jun 2009
Windows Seven is the codename for the latest version of Windows that is due out before the end of year.
What are the benefits and should I upgrade? Upgrading to a new operating system on a desktop PC is very expensive and we rarely recommend this unless there is a compelling reason to change. Buying a new machine with Windows Seven is the most likely route. I would seriously consider purchasing new machines with Windows Seven preinstalled for any machines purchased next year.
Windows Seven looks like Vista but runs more like XP or probably even better. The feedback from Beta testers of the product is very positive. The most important aspect is that this operating system is designed to run on today’s computers rather than 8-10 year old computers. Windows Seven takes full advantage of the significant hardware developments in new PCs.
We believe Windows Seven is the product that business users will run with. These are our initial thoughts. The secret with all new products is to try them out and thoroughly test them before bringing many into your business. After Windows Seven has been released consider bringing one into your organisation. Not a mission critical one, and see how it performs running your software. Then and only then consider bringing in more.
