130 Ways to Change the World!
We received over 130 submissions for our "7 Ways to Change the World" competition, which celebrated the launch of Windows 7. Our objective was to encourage people to share their ideas on how a PC running Windows could help an organization to have a greater impact in the community. Our 7 winners will be announced on the Unlimited Potential blog and on Twitter starting on November 16 2009. In the meantime why not watch some of the fantastic videos on our online gallery.
