Welcome banner by MeraWindows. I was amongst the very first ones to reach the venue. And as expected the party started around 30-45 minutes late from the scheduled time. There were 3 consoles with Windows 7 with one being Touch screen. We had hands on Office 2010 BETA as well Microsoft Surface.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">&#160;<a href=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018051024x768.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px\" title=\"DSC01805 [1024x768]\" border=\"0\" alt=\"DSC01805 [1024x768]\" src=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018051024x768-thumb.jpg\" width=\"244\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018121024x768.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px\" title=\"DSC01812 [1024x768]\" border=\"0\" alt=\"DSC01812 [1024x768]\" src=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018121024x768-thumb.jpg\" width=\"244\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">All those willing to check out Windows 7 could move to any of the console, it was 3 to all. Although a common word to all guests regarding Windows 7 would have been better (like the way done by Windows 7 Party @ Pilani by <a href=\"http:\/\/WindowsValley.com\">Ramesh Kumar<\/a>).There were 2 drinks per person and there was a choice between Fosters or Softdrink. Event was sponsored by Intel.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">&#160; <a href=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018141024x768.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px\" title=\"DSC01814 [1024x768]\" border=\"0\" alt=\"DSC01814 [1024x768]\" src=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018141024x768-thumb.jpg\" width=\"244\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a>&#160; <a href=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018111024x768.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px\" title=\"DSC01811 [1024x768]\" border=\"0\" alt=\"DSC01811 [1024x768]\" src=\"http:\/\/windowsvj.com\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/dsc018111024x768-thumb.jpg\" width=\"244\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I met all MeraWindows Champs there that included Manan the host of party (beingmanan.com), Rahul Manekari (Winspark.net), Hari Maurya (Techsurface.com) and Jenil.
