Link@Sheraton Hotels deploying Windows 7 to enrich guest experience
Sheraton Hotels & Resorts will soon roll out PCs using Windows 7 that’ll give guests in the hotels’ Link@Sheraton, a new way to stay connected and find information about local attractions, restaurants and more, weeks before the official public release of the new operating system, scheduled for Oct. 22. “Twelve IT managers from McBeth’s team are also assessing Windows 7 for use in day-to-day business operations at the 480 Starwood properties they support. So far, the feedback on the performance and stability of Windows 7 has been quite positive, to the point that they’ve also installed it on a few production machines. McBeth anticipates that Starwood will start a full refresh of the IT environment when Windows 7 is generally available next fall.”

That is too funny. I think hotels should consider using Macs instead of Windows. The reason is simple: Macs crash less and are a little bit more intuitive to use. Why not make it simple for the guests at the hotels?
Thanks anyways,
