When going through a migration from Windows XP to Windows 7, the No.1 obstacle to successful deployments is application compatibility. If your applications don't work, then you can't migrate. Currently, the No.1 deployment blocker within ‘app compat’ is customers who are still dependent upon Internet Explorer 6, and who have inherited a deployment of Internet Explorer 8 as part of the deal. Some are calling for help; others are hoping to avoid it. In this session, learn how to address the issue, leverage some of the powerful tools available (and understand where we don't have the tools we'd like to have), and help accelerate down the path to IE8 compatibility and deployment.
