Microsoft shoud organize these events in universities so that students of the present time could know its products and take the real advantage of the products.
Some of the universities in Pakistan are still using Windows 98, 2000 and XP.
So this step should be taken as soon as possible to overcome the deficincy of technology and IT in Pakistan.
