Windows 7 is pretty intense. I'm upgrading after my online class is done for the semester. Otherwise half the excrement I need isn't compatible.

You should look into the promo at http://windows7.digitalriver.com/store/mswpus/en_US/DisplayHomePage. It's $30 for any US college student at an accepted University. Got Windows 7 pro for $30, couldn't pass that up.

Eww. Home Premium. I got Windows 7 Professional for free. Legally, too. :3

Tinman is getting me a free 64 bit windows 7 from his workplace. He works at some data center, and they hand out free Microsoft products. Free, can't pass that up!

You can upgrade, you just have to do a clean install. I had XP.

...and Windows 7 is *SOMEHOW* better than Vista because...?
I wasn't even sure what Windows 7 was until now.

Spook · « **Reply #153 on:** October 25, 2009, 04:12:41 PM »

It uses system resources better than vista, so lower grade computers can run better on a newer OS.

Br55HiT · « **Reply #154 on:** October 25, 2009, 06:35:30 PM »

It's basically Vista that runs like XP. Or what Vista should have been.

Windows 7 is also highly compatible with newer hardware and much friendlier with solid state drives

had much problems with my 64bit to find printer-drivers:P

edit:
was at work with old drivers.

Justinph5 · « **Reply #157 on:** October 26, 2009, 05:38:44 PM »

^ However my USB printer drivers installed automatically with Windows 7 x64.

Spook · « **Reply #158 on:** October 26, 2009, 09:06:38 PM »

Eh, usually if I print stuff it's in my computer lab on campus, but 64 bit would work better with my computer setup either way.

W7 is awesome, finally some product from M$oft that is usefull.
