Wonder how you can benefit from latest platform of Microsoft ? Nice graphics, Aero Glass, DVD Maker, Games is all there - I don’t need to explain further for those great stuff. But really, how’s a company justify the value of investment towards Microsoft latest build ? That’s what we challenge internally to recreate the demo culture so that people understand the benefit of Ms innovation.

We prepare the 10 minutes demo scenario of medium size company call Santoso Indonesia. You might often hears about fiction company in every Microsoft demo called ‘Contoso’ rite ? For the sake of refreshness and bring local context, we choose Santoso. Its a medium Indonesian craft exporter company who just recently using Vista and Office 2007.

As you might aware, Microsoft will have the biggest launch event from its history, introducing LOVE : Launch of Office, Vista and Exchange. Cool acronym huh ?

In most country, it will be usually 2 separated launch.  Business Value launch in November and General Availability next February 2007. I feel honoured to be part of the launch team for both events, it must be exciting and fun to be part of the history.

The team is in a good shape and we are preparing for the first launch next December in front of more than 20 journalist from accross the country. I will teaming with our GM for the demonstration part of business value from Vista, Office and Exchange. Stay Tuned.
