Replacement for Windows (also known as R4W) is designed to be a drop-in replacement for Microsoft Windows 98-XP era computers. It is intended to be used by computer refurbishing/recycling centers and businesses. The goal is to keep perfectly good computers from becoming e-waste, as well as helping small businesses prosper by saving money. See the appropriate information below. |
|
Small Businesses: One of the biggest wastes of money for any business can be costly software licenses, and buying new equipment when there is nothing wrong with the computers they already have. An if you need to purchase equipment you can save a lot of money buying refurbished PCs and laptops without an operating system, or getting equipment with Replacement for Windows already installed. |
|
This is because Replacement for Windows uses the latest technologies to produce a top quality computer operating system featuring the latest publicly licensed software. The main advantages of publicly licensed software are that the software is cost-free, updates to newer versions are also cost-free, and usage is not restricted or confined to one computer.

Computer Refurbishing/Recycling Facilities: R4W is a turnkey operating system solution for computer recycling and refurbishing centers. Replacement for Windows is designed to be a pre-installed retail product. It is available in this System Restoration DVD format for installation by recycling and refurbishing centers. The DVD is designed to go with the unit so the customer can restore their system as needed. MSRP when invoicing is $60 installed. |
