10 Things You Must Know Before Your Next Windows Deployment

by

This is the first article in a series of articles on Windows 10 deployment and management.  In this first article, I will cover some of the basics for a refresher or if Windows 10 is your first time deploying an OS.  I will also cover what has changed or updated recently as well as what is new.  This series will get progressively deeper into deployment and then I will cover management of your newly deployed Windows 10 computers and devices starting with the basics again followed by deeper technical articles.  With Windows 10 being available on July 29th and the paradigm shift in Windows and Windows deployment my intention is to provide enough information to enable others with the ability to confidently deploy and manage Windows 10 before the 29th of July.
