Windows Vista Lights Up IT Fair
By FeiPhoon

Bandar Seri Begawan - The Brunei-Muara District's latest IT fair seems to have received a shot of credibility in the arm following Microsoft's recent consumer launch of its latest operating system, Windows Vista.

Like in similar events in the past, laptops were in abundance at the Brunei PC Fair 2007, but this time there were plenty of units running on Microsoft Windows Vista.

Vendors have packaged some of their latest models to include the software for a slight extra charge and have taken particular care to state that the software is genuine, specifically the consumer-geared Home Basic flavour. Most sales attendants seemed optimistic about the new sales angle afforded by Microsoft's aggressive campaign to promote the use of original products, and were pitching the operating system upgrade option without qualms.

Shoppers will be spoiled for choice with all-out displays of Sony, NEC, Acer and Asus laptops, as well as that of leading motherboard manufacturer MSI and rising brand Lenovo.

Other attractive items include the quirky designer hard drives by French brand LaCie, which were highly popular at past fairs, and ready-assembled gamer machines running off Intel dual core processors.

Organising company AMF Mas Event Management Services was delighted that all 39 slots offered for the event had found occupants.
