10月26日 Microsoft releases Windows 7the most wanted Operating System which everyone was waiting for a while was Windows 7. I was amazed to see the hype built towards the end of the month of September on Windows 7 in the region. Most of the sub's screemed with the launch which was a huge hit world wide. Steve B showed the world with a different kind of a marketing campaign with a little cuty called "Kylie" who introduced the Windows 7 features.
Some argued that was wrong to get a small kid in an advertiesment and some said this is for kid's and not for enterprises. I was humble enough to think what kind a stupid people are there who are using internet. But on the other hand that the mentality which made them different from the rest. And in our company we embrace the difference with others.....
Language Interface Packs or LIP's were introduced in Windows OS's for countries like ours. This was truely an amazing hight for the younger and rural population in a coutnry. India used their native languages for regions and we got our Sinhalease LIP. Most of all it was the major leap Microsoft Sri Lanka did when introducing "Gamata IT" in Niwithigala. A fabulose event which made mosft of the small faces out there made a simple smile.
As we all know the tough times are not going to be wiped off with a Tsunami (as we wish) we will still see how we can help people while we do out tay-today work.
Another good news - Exchange 2010 is getting leased in the month of November and that is one super computer which I was waiting for (even though I am using it now - for the sake of the reader). One thing for the younger generation, read the the knowladgebase articles, read the news, connect to connect.microsoft.com & enjoy your life !!! 10月13日 So back to blogging….Last week we released the newest version of Microsoft Exchange Server system to manufacturing… it was a nice to see how Microsoft R&D teams (which is one of the biggest in the world) rehearse and develop a system which was requested by customers who were using and about to use the last version. What many people don’t believe is that in a product development cycle, research is an important portion. Take an example, of the Linux distributions – we can always download the “FREE” software without anybody’s intervention and also get a GNU license. But have you thought that even if you have the product free, who is going to develop the new additions which we always need. For an example – a security loop-hole fix or a new Printer driver…. If I got the download from the Red Hat site, I may need to pay to get the support. Then I will be able to download the fix for the security loop-hole (do remember Linux also got security loop-holes). But if the distribution which I download isn’t got any registered trade-mark of a company, then it’s a shame to use your valuable time and bandwidth download. B’coz there isn’t any R&D team backing you-up for the support. It’s just like you buy a Merc S Series and then you figure out there is no spare-parts available :) But the “hard-core” extremes got few myths for the general public – one of them is Linux distributions are “free”. What actually carries is that you get a free Operating System from the web – but you do not have support. If you don’t believe it do a small research of the top enterprises in our country. |
