Dale un vistazo a Windows Vista y t■ también dirás "!Wow!" Apparently, Wow is just as universal as Windows Vista or the ubiquitous Windows platform are. Today is the birth of a brand new Microsoft website dedicated to Windows Vista and to all Spanish speakers in the United States. It must be because more and more people were answering "sí" to "do you want a copy of Windows Vista?" Microsoft has poured a consistent amount of effort into breaking the gap between cultures with technology, and this latest initiative from the Redmond Company is yet another
proof of the strategy.

Furthermore, Microsoft is also taking its own Hispanic employees to the center stage. Literally, because the company will debut a series of seminars designed to educate Hispanic parents in the intricacies of the Windows Vista parental controls.

"Among other great new features, Windows Vista provides innovative tools to help create a safer computing experience for the family. Windows Vista empowers parents to better manage and monitor their children's PC and Internet activities. Parents can manage and monitor PC and Internet access with a few simple clicks in the new Windows Vista Parental Controls center and decide what kinds of TV, music and games are appropriate for their children. Security features are also more robust in the new release," Microsoft revealed.

Miami will be the main location of on-site Spanish-language demonstrations in June, because of the strong local Hispanic community. In addition to Parental Controls, Microsoft will also deliver insight into the Multilanguage User Interface, Windows Aero and Windows Media Center. "As a Hispanic father myself, I'm proud of sharing my technological knowledge with other Hispanic parents who can benefit from it," said Luis Martinez, Windows Vista developer at Microsoft. "The parental control features built into Windows Vista will help families better manage how the PC is used and will help them protect their children."
