The latest release of Microsoft’s PC Operating System (OS)
is now available for commercial use in India.
Ravi Venkatesan, Chairman, Microsoft India, said, “Windows 7
enhances the user experience by its sheer simplicity and caters to
their connected lives across work and play. Over 90 percent of
testers from around the world have rated it as “good”
or “extremely good” and consider Windows 7 to be
responsive, simple-to-use and stable.” Over 600 new feature
ideas for Windows 7 were tested through global quantitative
research early in the engineering process, helping Microsoft
determine the features that best address consumers’ top
needs. Further, Windows 7 saw the largest beta testing program in
the history of the industry, involving 8 million testers
worldwide.
Windows 7 is available in six editions, targeted at specific user
groups. The two primary editions are Windows 7 Home Premium for
home users and Windows 7 Professional for SMBs. Windows 7 desktops
and notebook PCs are already available at retail outlets such as
Croma.
