The latest News, Events and Offers from Rapid Technologies http://www.rapid.co.uk Tue, 13 Oct 2009 10:01:58 GMT And it works very well actually. There was always going to be a certain amount of expectation from Microsoft and its latest version of Windows after the poor start made by Windows Vista. But we are happy to report that Windows 7 is a totally different story. Sure, there’s a bundle of new features that Business and Education customers will love, but that’s not all. Windows 7 has a highly polished feel to it. Customers complained that they wanted their PC to ‘just work’ and were fed up of waiting for their computer to respond. Windows 7 zips along even on older hardware - in fact, Windows 7 breathes new life into PC’s that struggled with Vista and even Windows XP. Talk to us today about upgrading to Windows 7. Why not arrange a product demonstration for your organisation?
