Windows XP, Desktop Search, Vista and Office 2007 - at the CTS (Computer Trade Show) with David Overton and James Akrigg

On the 10th & 11th May I will be presenting every 40 minutes on Windows, Office and Vista - a quick introduction on what these great products can do for you today and in the future.

To book into the session, go to http://www.microsoft.com/uk/cts - it is advised as it is expected to be busy.  For general information about the CTS show, go have a look at http://www.ctshow.co.uk.  It is a great opportunity to get to see a large amount of the IT industry in one place.

Signing up to the my session at the CTS show (and turning up) will also enable us to send you a DVD of Vista when it betas (if you want to).  Clicking on the link here will give you a very basic lead into our stand at the show: http://www.ctshow.co.uk/cgi-events/exview.pl?exhibition_id=91&exbtr_id=6439

As for what these products can do for you - they are due to beta later this month and since I have been running both of them for ages, I can tell you there is a long list of great features that I will share - ripe for small business partrners.

Also, if you buy a new PC now, you have 180 days (until the end of June) to register it in our Software Assurance (SA) programme, which gives you many advantages, including access to Vista and Office when they ship to voulume licensing customers later this year.  AND, since SA sign-up is over 2 years and you pay something like ~30% of the product price per year, this means that you get Vista and the Enterprise features etc for about ~60% of the price you would otherwise pay.

That has got to be something to shout about.

For more info on the products, go look at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp, http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista and http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview.
