Business extras
Rounding out the Business Edition are several minor online features known as Windows Vista Small Business Resources. Microsoft is determined to be helpful to its SMB market, in this case by providing an
embedded link to online resources that could be beneficial to small businesses. The site, currently live, features access to small business technology specialists in your area and will, with the launch of Windows Vista, include free online services, such as automated tools using Windows Backup and Restore, to help small businesses protect data against hardware failure or user error, along with improved security in Windows Vista Business edition, and text and video that demonstrates new search and organization features that improve workplace productivity.
If your saved search folder on raptors becomes too large, you can reorganize the results into groups or reorganize by metatags, displaying the content on ospreys separately from that of bald eagles.
Another small-business feature is Windows Shadow Copy. This feature creates point-in-time copies of files as you work so that you can quickly and easily retrieve versions of a document you may have accidentally deleted. Shadow Copy creates copies on a scheduled basis of all files that have changed. Since only incremental changes are saved, minimal disk space is required. It works on single files as well as whole folders. When restoring a file, all previous versions that are different than the live copy on the disk are shown. When accessing a previous version of a folder, users can browse the folder hierarchy to see how it appeared at a previous point in time.
