This month, our presentation will be on Windows Me. Our newest Channel
Marketing Representative to DMA®, Ms. Sonal Shah, will present this new
operating system and another application, Picture It!.
Remember when 'Multimedia' was the hot buzzword, and we were all attaching
speakers and CD players to our computers, and upgrading our video cards
to get sound (anything but the tinny PC speakers) and decent graphics
on our machines? Not really that long ago, but we've sure come a long
way since then.
New technologies are changing the way we live, play, and learn.
Think about it — computers all come standard with speakers, CD-ROM,
and even DVD, players; and we are doing more creative and interesting
things with our home PCs than ever before. The idea of the PC or Mac
as just a productivity tool is already fading from memory. Some of the
most exciting advances in home computing are happening in the realm of
digital media and entertainment. Using our home units to do more with
pictures, music, and video is becoming increasingly popular among home
PC and Mac users.
Working With Digital Media
Bring the richness and convenience of the digital world to your home.
Microsoft's brand new consumer operating system, Windows Me, is
designed to provide the best in Digital Media with new features such
as:
- Windows Image Acquisition—making it easy to acquire pictures from
a scanner or digital camera and perform simple operations such as
previewing, rotating, and printing.
- Windows Media Player 7—offering one, powerful, easy-to-use place
where users can find, organize, and play digital media.
- Windows Movie Maker—providing users with tools to digitally edit,
save, and share home videos.
Join us on January 30 at U.D. as we explore Windows Me and a few other
Microsoft products that allow you to take full advantage of the power of
digital media. In addition, Sonal will show you how Windows Me delivers
"other key consumer benefits including an Improved User Experience,
Enhanced Home Networking, and the Richest Internet Experience".
