Windows 7 Review (Part One)

Hey there guys, So this is my full review of the new Windows 7. In this version, I am using Windows 7 Ultimate, I try to talk about as much of the features as possible. But if yo wish for any info on this I suggest you ask me, or go to www.microsoft.com/windows7 for more info. I absolutely love this Os, and I would highly recommend it to others. It’s as stable as XP as light-weight as anything I’ve ever used, and looks much prettier than Vista. This is Next Generation Operating Systems. – Scott….

@xSTR8xUPx No, I did not torrent or I am not a member of MSDN.

I simply had attended a release event of Windows 7 at a college in Dublin, Ireland. As a result of helping out and organizing small parts of the event a Microsoft Representative had given me Windows 7 Ultimate 32-Bit and 64-Bit.

In regards to new and old games, I believe it plays both equally well

Personally all of your specs above are really fast, and amazing. I’d buy that PC. =]

Windows XP from my own evidence, is actually slightly slower than Windows 7. I’d go for Windows 7

Hope I helped

Well yeah! Windows 7 is actually Windows Vista… BUT It’s Windows Vista with all of its problems gone AND new features. xD

I totally recommend it, it’s possibly the best OS I’ve used from Microsoft, even better than XP

Thanks for the compliments Brew.
Hope I helped!

Asides

The curtain has been raised (slightly) on the next installment of Microsoft’s Windows operating system – Windows 7.

Microsoft hope it will bring the internet, mobile phone and PC closer together. But reviews have so far been mixed, although reviewers have been limited to trying the (pre-beta version).

The full version is expected to be capable of working with a touchscreen screen, navigating documents and the Web similar to Apple’s iPhone. It is officially released at the end of 2009.

InfoWorld

“I have seen the future, and it is bleak. Windows 7, the next big version, the one that was supposed to fix everything that was wrong with Vista, is here (at least in pre-beta form), and I can now say – with some confidence – that Microsoft has once again dropped the ball.

“Overall, I’m extremely disappointed with Windows 7. Far from atoning for Vista’s sins, Windows 7 simply carries them forward, visiting them upon yet another generation. Windows 7 is no panacea. Rather, it’s just more of the same: slow, bloated, and frustrating as hell.”

The Register

“When it comes to Windows 7, Microsoft hasn’t just learned from the mistakes of Windows Vista. It has picked up a thing or two from Apple’s OS X, judging by first impressions.

Techradar

“It’s not clear how big the changes are so far. If you put the beta-build of Windows 7 side-by-side with Windows Vista, you’d be hard-pressed to spot the differences. Yes, some of the icons look slightly different and there’s no sidebar, but it’s essentially still the Vista look and feel. But that changes when you start to use Windows 7.

“For a start the OS won’t nag you as much; many notifications are banished to a control panel, you get to approve icons before they show up in the system tray and Microsoft has reined in Vista’s useful but annoying UAC prompts; you can choose which ones you want to see or turn them off altogether.”

ZDNet

“Initially Windows 7 looks similar to Vista, but there a lot of new features that have been added. Under the skin, Microsoft has been working hard. Boot times have been reduced, and certainly the review laptop Microsoft provided has a fairly snappy boot time.

“Microsoft has been working with OEMs to improve battery life – simple things such as reducing the timer frequency can improve battery life by up to 10 per cent. The networking stack has had new diagnostics added to help users figure out exactly where the problem lies.

PC Magazine

“So, is this all a big deal? It’s not a change to the fundamental core of Windows, and most of the improvements sound relatively small. But taken together, they seem to address many of the issues people have had for Windows. I’m looking forward to trying it out, starting this afternoon.”
