Most organizations that have more than a handful of PCs to manage will definitely elect to stick to the back of the line in terms of upgrades because computers have become essential for every day business. It costs a LOT of Time and Money to upgrade an OS and because of that, large organizations are usually weary and very careful. The design of Windows 8 does not appear to be one that appeals to the efficiency-hungry corporate America... it appears to be one that would appeal to the on-the-go consumer who wants everything at their fingertips. My guess is that businesses will avoid Windows 8 altogether.Matt Rosloniecnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2439487671304461174.post-26500339061936368352012-03-19T18:43:22.409-04:002012-03-19T18:43:22.409-04:00The OS itself may be perfectly fine, however, I ho...The OS itself may be perfectly fine, however, I honestly believe this new interface/GUI is going to flop.<br /><br />I find it to be a chore to navigate though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2439487671304461174.post-28950758191862718582012-03-13T19:42:53.515-04:002012-03-13T19:42:53.515-04:00Great question.

Just like many organizations skipped rolling out Windows Vista and stayed with the more stable Windows XP SP3 until Windows 7 came out - more importantly after SP1 was released. <br /><br />Users - both consumers and businesses, need to remember that just because a new operating system comes out does not mean it's the best. It may have additional features but usually filled with a plethora of bugs and security holes. An operating system's stability and security is proven through time. I know of some companies who wait until there is at least a SP2 out for the OS prior to upgrading.<br /><br />Having said, I believe that many organizations are still in the midst of upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 or again, waiting until SP2 is released.Stephen Geldersmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034232565815304172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2439487671304461174.post-64725841942166759212012-03-13T18:50:23.754-04:002012-03-13T18:50:23.754-04:00From a management standpoint will corporate Americ...From a management standpoint will corporate America embrace or stick with Windows 7 and wait for Windows 9?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
