I wanted to make the title say Windows Vista7 but I don’t know how to make a line in the title. I’m currently installing Windows 7 on one of my newer machines. It’s not my best machine but it is running a Core 2 Duo and it’s got around 2 GB of RAM so it should work fine.
I’ve been running Vista for close to a year now and I actually like it. Vista got a very bad rap and I’m not really sure why. It does take a little getting used to especially if you moved from Win 2000. It’s not a lot different from XP except it asks you everytime it thinks you might be doing something stupid. I turned that off as soon as I found out how.
Now that Windows 7 is available as a public beta I figured I might as well try it. I’ll report on what I think once I’ve played with it a bit. It’s in the middle of the installation now.
After a couple of hours I can’t see many differences from Vista. It’s very nice but so is Vista.

Is it supposed to have the new faster file system?

That’s what I hear. I don’t know as I’ve done enough to tell. It does start a lot faster then either XP or Vista. That’s supposed to be another area they fixed.
