Fujitsu Technology Solutions has released new desktop, notebook and thin client product lines specifically tailored to the recently released Windows 7 operating system, particularly its touch capabilities. The company now also offers a ‘TwinLoad’ option for upgrades, making it easier for companies to transition to Windows 7.

Fujitsu’s Lifebook tablet PCs now support Windows 7 multi-touch screen capabilities. The Dual-Digitizer technology in these devices automatically recognises if the user is working with Fujitsu’s multifunctional pen or their own fingers, and acts either as an active digitiser or touch screen accordingly. Windows Touch technology allows multi-touch, meaning it can recognise two touch points at the same time and so provide a richer user experience.

By extending its TwinLoad option Fujitsu enables customers to buy new hardware, but defer the actual upgrade to Windows 7 until they are satisfied that the operating system is fully integrated with their corporate system. Fujitsu also provides a TwinLoad DVD with complete software images (operating system, additional software and drivers) with the aim of making installation run as smoothly as possible.

The Windows 7 operating system is a great step forward for mobility and the user experience

Rajat Kakar, Fujitsu Technology Solutions “The Windows 7 operating system is a great step forward for mobility and the user experience,” said Rajat Kakar, vice president clients group at Fujitsu Technology Solutions. “As users and the workforce become more mobile, touch screen capabilities for tablet PCs gain importance. We feel that Windows 7 allows us to provide a responsive and accurate touch screen experience.”
