Read what people are saying about Windows 7:

  • Windows Media Center

    Is glad to see that Microsoft fixed many of the UI issues in Vista Media Centre in Windows 7. So far, impressive - switch? Maybe.

  • Windows Media Center

    52 inch LCD, Bose stereo, Windows Media, Win 7, XPS, remote cam, keyboard, etc rocks! Living room, dance, vid conf twitter, etc! IM A GEEK!

    smooth install, faster startups, automatic drivers, usability improvements, solid interface, not a single flaw yet, loving #windows7

  • Woohoo! Free copy of Win7, mouse and most importantly a nerf-type gun.

  • Windows 7 seems to be working well for me. Nice job PC. Now, back to searching for ERP, DWH, and Business Intelligence resources. Uhhgg

  • I'm liking Outlook much better in #WIndows7. Haven't had much chance to play around yet, though.

  • Performance Improvements

    the performance of win 7 on the intel atom diamondville is just great and hey, it looks and feels good.

  • Have to be honest: Win 7 is a great product! #win7

  • Ultimate Edition

    all my pc's are now running Win 7 Ultimate editions :)

  • #Windows7 works for me because i can do less work and accomplish more!

  • Windows 7 copy arrived! It feels good to hold it even if I can't use it yet.

  • Windows Taskbar

    WIn 7 plus ultramon to stretch taskbar onto second monitor is looking cool. Now going to try and spoil lt with 3rd monitor

  • Performance Improvements

    Starting my #Win7 install now. Looking forward to all the performance tweaks I keep hearing about.

  • I love Win7 Sticky Notes - I'm writing my entire review on them coz they're fun lol! (All different colours!)

  • My new windows 7 laptop is AMAZING its a Sony Vaio and everything is HD im so excited, i cant wait for it to finish updating so i can use it

  • WAMP seems much quicker in Win7 than when I used it ages ago in Vista. Running my D6 and D7 Framework builds with no problems.

  • Waiting for the Win 7 installation process to complete. It's amazing how much we depend computers for productivity.

  • Performance Improvements

    switched to 64bit #windows7 on #parallels for .net/c# development. 64bit Win7 runs much faster on my 64bit MacPro than 32bit XP. Great!

  • Professional Edition

    OK, #windows7 pro has an integrated screen-capture tool ...

  • And it is official, netbooks rock(when paired with a decent mouse and 2g ram). Awesome battery life, running win 7 quite smoothly.

  • VirtualBox seemless mode of Win7 on my linux desktop is phenomenal! If I gotta use windows for homework, at least it's convenient.

  • Ultimate Edition

    Finally getting around to removing Win 7 RC and installing Win 7 Ultimate. Weeh.

  • Games Explorer

    Gotta tell you - having run Windows 7 for about 6 months, I love it. Pretty awesome in VM Fusion as well. Kid safety features actually work

    search on #win7 is indispensable, don't know what i did with out it

  • Sleep and Resume

    Having a surprisingly smooth sail on #win7. so far consuming less resources, good UI, startup and shutdowns are good as well

  • Lovin' windows7 ... all the fun features of the mac (even stickies!) but with better minimizing and window re-sizing :)

  • Dell + Windows7 = reliable, responsive, and things made you do everyday easier!!!
