Now, I'll open another app, in this case Excel and here I'll open this periodic table and let's change nickel into gold. Everything my IT department has installed for me is in the Start menu, like Office and Teams, so I'm immediately ready to work. So here you can see my personal desktop, it still has my apps, even the ones I was using from the last time I was here and my custom desktop background. First, let me launch right into my desktop. Now there are also a few other things you can do from this portal, but I'll show you that in a sec. Now it actually has a higher spec than the laptop I'm connecting from. Now I can see my Cloud PC along with its specs.

It's easy to use and just as easy for IT to manage.

Now it's a premium experience for both users and IT. So with Windows 365, we are modernizing the way that Windows experiences are delivered for anyone on practically any device. So what's the significance now that we're doing here with Windows 365? That's right, and you know given the need to work remotely and securely over the past year, we've seen this huge demand for cloud-based solutions. Well, I sure am excited to have Windows 365 finally announced today, and I can't wait to show it in more detail.

Alright, so Scott, we've had you on the show now quite a few times over the past few years but, now you're back with a special announcement. And for IT, we're gonna show you how as a fully managed service, just how easy it is to assign and configure Cloud PCs using familiar tools like Microsoft Endpoint Manager. Coming up, I'm joined by Scott Manchester to take a first look at Windows 365, your PC in the cloud that lets you securely stream your personalized Windows experience, including your desktop, your apps, your settings and your content, at any time to all your devices.
