As we move through the first quarter of 2026, the initial excitement surrounding Microsoft 365 Copilot has hit a cold, hard wall of British pragmatism. While marketing promised a “productivity revolution”, many UK SMEs are finding that the reality is closer to a “governance nightmare”. At System Plus, the honeymoon phase is over. Here is […]
Windows 12 in 2026? Why the Internet Is Wrong (And What’s Actually Coming) If you’ve spent any time on tech forums or scrolling through your feeds lately, you’ve likely seen the headline: “Windows 12 Launching in 2026!” It’s a compelling story, the idea of a fresh, AI-native operating system designed to drag us into the […]
