Microsoft Pushes for Technological Growth Worldwide

In a technology conference in Dubai, Microsoft sales, marketing and licensing head Steven Guggenheimer said that despite the worst condition of the economy, the world’s biggest software developer still hopes to make fairly good progress with the launching of the new Windows OS.

“We at Microsoft hope that the things we do will continue to impact the society and we can move forward through technological advances that will help spur growth in the overall economy,” Guggenheimer said.

He noted that there are over one billion people all over the world that owns or use computers in the daily basis, saying that the impact of the launching of the new Windows would soon resonate.

Likewise, the official showed a demonstration of the new Microsoft Windows OS to audiences at the forum. The software developer is set to release the latest version of the operating system in New York City on Thursday.

The high-anticipated Windows 7, which the he dubbed as the most brilliantly designed operating system, was marred by the economic recession. Expected sales were brought down as companies said that they still have no funds in adopting the new software.

The forum in Dubai was the largest information technology exhibit in the Middle East with more than 3, 000 manufacturers and suppliers in attendance.
