Why I have bothered with the Windows 7 logo program

By scott kane | Published: November 8, 2009

Across on his blog Andy Bryce has written some very good reasons for why he won't be bothering with the round of Windows 7 logos marketing Microsoft has launched. First I should point out that there is a difference between the "Compatible with Windows 7 logo" and associated marketing materials and the "Certified For" program run by Microsoft. The latter, I'm in full agreement with Andy. I saw no benefit in the Vista version and see no beneift in the Windows 7 version. Rather we're talking about the logo to the left of this article.

Windows 7 – RTM 6th Of August 2009

By scott kane | Published: August 6, 2009

Today - for those in the Northern Hemisphere (yesterday almost for the rest of us) Microsoft is releasing Windows 7 officially to RTM (Release To Manufacturing). Which means, the Microsoft MSDN server gods willing, I'll be able to download my own release licenses sometime in the small hours after midnight (my time). Of course if indeed I can get a connection, given the amount of traffic they are likely to get, it'll probably take a while to download.
