D-Link, the end-to-end computer networking solutions provider for consumer and business, today welcomed the improvements to network compatibility with the much anticipated release of Windows 7, Microsoft's newest operating system for PCs.
As one of Microsoft Corp's Tier One partners in the launch of Windows 7, D-Link was able to conduct extensive early testing of the program to ensure all of its products can be installed and operate with maximum functionality in a Windows 7-based PC-networked environment.
“One of the most important innovations that we're seeing in Windows 7 is the ability for our network devices to be recognised and install automatically,” said Tobie van Schalkwyk, D-Link South Africa country manager.
“Connectivity is key,” he said. “Windows 7 provides us with a platform and resources to ensure that D-Link products are easy to use out of the box. This will completely change the way users relate to their D-Link networking products and make it easier for them to realise the full potential of their investment. And it also will reduce technical support calls and product returns.”
Van Schalkwyk added: “D-Link and Microsoft have a shared vision of anywhere, anytime access to the user's digital world. With our networking devices and Windows 7, this vision can be realised.”
