It Was A Wild Summer of Running (Part 3) – M2M Relay

It been one year since the October 21, 2009 launch of Windows 7.  This also means that it was one year ago that I was hosting the most nerdy party in the world by hosting a Windows 7 Launch Party!  Oh what fun we had! Needless to say, Windows 7 has been the most successful OS for Microsoft since Windows 95.  It’s fast, lean and just works.
