Windows 7 likely to spur demand for PCs from large firms, says Dell

DEMAND for computers from large companies is likely to pick up by as soon as mid-2010 as a result of Microsoft’s launch today of its Windows 7 operating system, a senior Dell executive has said.

Dell’s president for large enterprise, Stephen Schuckenbrock, told reporters: “Windows 7 is the best quality product launch that Microsoft has had in a very long time.

“When you consider that Vista was a bust, Windows 7 is a capability upgrade on a scale that has really never been seen before.”
