Windows 7 Microsoft sends invitations to testers f

Microsoft is assembling the group of testers who will receive the very first beta of Company Pack (SP) one for Windows seven and Windows Server 2008 R2 in July.
The enterprise has started sending invitations to these it strategies to contain in the testing system. Based on the invitations,Office 2007 Enterprise, the beta bits will likely be in English, German, Japanese,Office 2010 Download, French and Spanish.
At Microsoft’s TechEd conference last week, officials said to expect the beta of SP1 in July. (I’m hearing it is going to be delivered in mid-July, the same time Microsoft holds its Worldwide Partner Conference in Washington, DC.) The rumored final release data for SP1 (not confirmed by Microsoft officially) is Q4 2010.
Officials said earlier this year that SP1 for Windows seven won’t incorporate any new features; it might be a rollup of fixes. SP1 for Windows Server 2008 R2 will include both fixes and two new features. The new features contain a new graphics acceleration platform,Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise, known as RemoteFX, that is depending on desktop-remoting technology that Microsoft obtained in 2008 when it acquired Calista Technologies. There also will probably be a new addition to Hyper-V that will dynamically adjust memory of a guest virtual machine on demand.
Here’s the invitation (with a word tweak or two,Office Professional 2007, for clarity’s sake) that Microsoft is sending to potential SP1 testers:

Microsoft officials are continuing to stress that customers don’t need to wait for SP1 to deploy the latest versions of Windows client and server. They said the same with Windows Vista, but that message fell (mostly) on deaf ears. This time around, it seems more businesses are moving ahead without waiting for the delivery of SP1 — a milestone upon which many corporations timed their deployments in the past.
