Microsoft Ireland has announced the launch events for Windows 7 and W2008 R2.\u00a0 Like with the TechDays tour earlier this year, there will be events in Galway, Cork, Belfast and Dublin.\u00a0 The day is split into two events: a technical session aimed at the business during the afternoon and an event in the evening aimed at using Windows 7 at home.\u00a0 You have to register for each event if you want to go to both.<\/p>\n
Each attendee<\/u><\/em><\/strong> will receive a free copy of Windows 7 Ultimate.\u00a0 It\u2019s a legit copy you\u2019ll be able to use.\u00a0 Seats are limited and demand will be great.\u00a0 That\u2019s why Microsoft has set up a lottery for the tickets instead of the usual first-come, first-served approach.\u00a0 Anyone who is already a member of the Windows user Group in Ireland will have gotten a special registration code in their mail in the last few minutes.\u00a0 That will give them a better chance to get a seat because community members have a reserved allocation of seats.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve been a part of the planning of the events.\u00a0 I can promise that the focus is demo, demo, demo.\u00a0 No one will die from allergic shock to PowerPoint.\u00a0 There is a huge effort to squeeze as much as possible into the events as possible.\u00a0 The Windows User Group will be trying to follow up these events in the coming months to add more detail and to cover functionality that couldn\u2019t get squeezed into the time available at the launch events.<\/p>\n Here is the communication<\/a> from Microsoft:<\/p>\n \u201cJoin us at the Windows 7 Technical Community Launch and be part of Windows history!<\/strong> Windows 7 is launching all over the world in the coming weeks and Microsoft Ireland are offering IT Professionals and Developers in your area, a chance to see the operating system uncovered. <\/em>\n<\/p>\n Click the links below to go the event page, where you can *register your interest.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n Windows 7 Technical Community \u2013 General Launch Session<\/strong> Microsoft @ Home with Windows 7<\/strong> *Places allocated on lottery basis one week before each event.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n I have to add that Wilbour, Dave, Enda and Ronnie and a huge crowd of others are busting their butts to make this an amazing event.\u00a0 They deserve a lot of credit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Microsoft Ireland has announced the launch events for Windows 7 and W2008 R2.\u00a0 Like with the TechDays tour earlier this year, there will be events in Galway, Cork, Belfast and Dublin.\u00a0 The day is split into two events: a technical session aimed at the business during the afternoon and an event in the evening aimed … Continue reading “Microsoft Ireland Windows 7 & Windows Server 2008 R2 Launch Events”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9876"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9876\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aidanfinn.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
