WIndows 8 is Great But..
Microsoft's 'most radically redesigned version of Windows since Windows 95 (their words, not ours)--Windows 8 is garnering consumer attention, although Indian CIOs are shaking their heads.
Indian CIOs aren't ready to kiss their existing operating systems goodbye and make way for the new touch-centric operating system.
"Today, companies are still basking in the glory of a pan-organizational Windows 7 implementation. A considerable amount of time, money, and with change management, has gone into the process. Expecting a Windows 8 adoption now is silly," says Vishal Tripathi, principal research analyst at Gartner. If what Tripathi says is true, the adoption inertia, as he puts it, is here to stay for another three to four quarters.
