Launch Tour 2007
Well, I made it. I get to go to Launch Tour 2007. I will have a lot more about Windows Vista, Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows SharePoint 2007 as well. Just a couple things about the current talk I am currently in.
Windows Vista introduces:
- 2400 GPOs (+800 from XP / Win 2003)
- Policies are XML based which lends to third party updates and changes.
- Device restriction: (Which means you can disallow USB devices. You can get it granular as well, where you can allow USB keyboards, mouses, etc... But not USB flash drives. You can even get down to the level of exact device name. Such as USB\SanDisk1GB_ )
- This is not restricted to USB, this is all devices.
- With GPOs you can configure when your computers turn off the hard drives, and monitors. Even on desktops. This is a huge feature for large enterprises that die when the power bill comes in.
