Happy 35th birthday to Windows! On Nov 20, 1985, the first version of Windows (Windows 1.0) was released to the public. It came on two floppy disks, took up 256kb of memory, and was able to run one program at a time (unless you upgraded to a computer with 512kb of memory!)

Reminder! Our services are still modified for safety! We are relying on remote support when possible and our technicians will never be in a classroom at the same time as students. If we need to service a device physically we will request it be left in the office for pickup.
