Hi all,

Just a quick post today. Unless you have been hiding under a rock or sunning yourself on a remote tropical island somewhere you would have heard that the Microsoft held the public launch of the Windows 7 Beta last week. Looking to repair some of the damage done by a lacklustre Windows Vista launch, the beta launch was such a success that the demand crippled Microsoft’s homepage as well as the beta download page while tech enthusiasts scrambled to download a copy. While so far the feedback has been positive as to Windows 7, if we had to rate the Redmond giant’s Capacity and Demand Management processes, well they might end up with a rating similar to that deserved by Vista (at least at launch).
