Re: Windows 7
Just setup today. Lemme say one thing here: I LOVE THE INSTALLATION!!!
It has a clean, easy-to-read progress bar, not as many pop-ups requesting info, and (my favorite part), you can START THE INSTALL from your current Microsoft OS. I realized that I didn't need a DVD to install it. You can choose a new partition, or upgrade. But you can only upgrade if you have Vista SP1+.

So now I'm triple-booting Win7-64, XP64, and Ubuntu64. I really, truly, honestly don't know where to start. Just if you read this, every positive thing that someone has said about this OS, is true. Even their claim of less UAC-related notifications.

Runs well on my laptop with an AMD64 1.6GHz dual core, 2gigs of RAM, and integrated mobile video card. In fact, if it wasn't for my crappy video, I'd have a 4.5 on the Windows Experience Index (currently it's 1.0).

I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't a big fan of MS, if at all, before tonight. Now, well, let's just say they have my vote. I've already vowed to legally purchase this OS, and have only pestered all of my friends about it.

And it's still in Beta....
