And so ... Microsoft will not lose time when everyone runs after gifts, and from all directions. :)
At Microsoft TechEd North America 2009, Microsoft today announced that Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Server R2 will both be available to customers in time for the holiday shopping season.
Although initially it was expected 3 years after the launch Windows Vista to launch a new operating system Windows, it can be said that Windows 7 was released only 2 years after Vista, when the variant Beta 1 was made public to millions of testers. The RC was also made public a few days ago, and now we have confirmation from Microsoft that Windows 7 final will be released before the shopping season :).
What is right, the movement is very good, because Microsoft had a lot to lose from a global crisis.
