-
- STReport proudly presents the NEWS you've all been waiting for;
-
-
- WINDOWS 95 PREVIEW PROGRAM
- ==========================
-
-
- With all you've read and heard about Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 95, we
- hope you've learned that Windows 95 will help organizations lower their PC
- support burden, provide more control over the desktop, and make users more
- productive.
-
- So how can you prepare to put Windows 95 to work in your organization?
- First continue to read WINNEWS for the latest Windows 95 information.
- Additionally, we are making some units of the Windows 95 Preview Program
- available for those customers trying to prepare their organizations for
- the migration to Windows 95.
-
- Since the Preview Program kit includes pre-release software it is meant
- for computing and IS professionals. Nevertheless we anticipate greater
- demand for this program than we will be able to accommodate. So for those
- people unable to obtain a copy we apologize in advance.
-
- Participants in the Windows 95 Preview Program, will receive:
-
- * A pre-release version of Windows 95 along with information to evaluate
- the product and plan your migration. For example, the Windows 95
- Feature Review will familiarize you with all the new product
- features, and the Corporate Deployment Guide shows you how to put
- them to work in your organization. Use the Demonstration Kit
- presentation and materials to show management why the migration makes
- good business sense. The Windows Resource Kit lists tools you need
- to train yourself and others.
-
- Windows 95 Preview Program Terms and Conditions:
- ------------------------------------------------
- Since the Preview Program contains prerelease software and is not
- returnable, there are several points you should be aware of before
- ordering:
-
- * System Requirements: Windows 95 requires a minimum of a 386DX with 4
- MB of RAM.
-
- * License: The Preview Program's license enables you to use this
- software until one month after the final product becomes available in
- stores. Only the registered Preview Program participant is eligible
- for support.
-
- * Support: Limited technical support will be provided for the duration
- of the Preview Program, and will be discontinued at the time your
- license expires. Since the support staff will be ramping up for
- retail availability of Windows 95, the response times may be longer
- than normal.
-
- * Warranty: Since this is pre-release software, there is no warranty
- associated with it, and Microsoft cannot be held responsible for any
- problems resulting from the use of this product.
-
- * Lifetime: The pre-release Windows 95 software has a limited lifetime
- and will expire approximately one year after the final product becomes
- available. The exact date and details will be provided with your
- Preview Program Kit.
-
- * No Discount: The price of the Preview Program Kit covers the costs of
- the materials, implementation and support for this program, and cannot
- be applied towards the purchase of the final released product.
-
- * Recommended Use: Since this is pre-release software, we recommend
- using it on a secondary machine. Or, if you plan to use it on your
- primary machine, we recommend backing up all of your existing data.
