Microsoft






Whether you love them or hate them one thing you cannot escape in the world of computers is Microsoft. They have been in the vocabulary of personal computers since 1975. Bill Gates started tinkering with the idea of a personal computer in his garage in Seattle, Washington. Since its inception Microsoft has grown to become a computer giant.


You can see more about the history of Microsoft here


Microsoft has quite a few computer projects under their belt...the big one being Microsoft Windows. Windows first entered the arena in 1985. Since then there have been many releases of Windows. Windows 95 was a huge breakthrough with the use of GUI's instead of flimsy graphics. Currently Windows 7 is the latest Windows operating system...which in my opinion offers much better performance the Windows Vista.


Microsoft has had a long history with the Windows operating system. Is there still room for improvement?? Yes. I think Microsoft has taken a big step in the right direction with Windows 7. It offers much better performance than the previous version of Windows.
