It appears Microsoft has hit the PC operating system target with Windows 7. It's fast, intuitive, and secure, but what's in it for us IBM i professionals?
Written by Chris Peters
The reasoning for migration to Microsoft's latest version of its operating system is quite compelling, enough so that directors of traditional IBM i installations may decide the effort and expense of conversion is merited. This article examines the major benefits and significant limitations of migrating to Windows 7 in the IBM i environment as well as the requirements for its implementation.

Windows 7 is undoubtedly the best version of Windows ever, but is it the best direction?
 Written by Chris Smith
October is a very special month in the world of computing, because on October 22, the new Windows 7 OS will arrive on new PCs and as a shrink-wrapped upgrade to the much-maligned Windows Vista.

Microsoft's latest operating system, Vista, has been available for almost a year. During that period, a number of interesting developments have come to pass. When Vista was released, I predicted that the new operating system would be widely adopted in the same manner that other new versions of Windows have been implemented in the past. That was where I was wrong. Sure, I said, there are some problems and inconveniences associated with the adoption of any new OS, and Vista would surely have its share, but inevitably the rollout would roll on. Not true this time.
There are a number of reasons cited as to why only a fraction of us have migrated to Vista. The Internet forums and blogs are full of them: |
