Windows 7

We designed and refined Windows 7 based on your input. You’ve essentially asked for a PC that’s simple to use—one that’s faster, easier, and works the way you want. So we made hundreds of basic improvements, and a few you might not have imagined. It’s not quite finished, but if you like trying pre-release software, take it for a test drive.
