Comments on: Microsoft Windows 7 – First Impressions http://www.peter-v.com/microsoft-windows-7-first-impressions/ Tue, 29 Jun 2010 15:41:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Recon415 http://www.peter-v.com/microsoft-windows-7-first-impressions/comment-page-1/#comment-641 Recon415 Wed, 27 May 2009 21:25:51 +0000 http://www.peter-v.com/?p=342#comment-641 I am proud to say that I am quite impressed with Windows 7. I've been tracking it through Neowin.net since the early 6800 builds, and have been keeping up with every 2-3 builds since the official 7000 beta release. Even during beta, I have had not one crash. Drivers find all of my hardware, the superbar is highly configurable and easy to use, the Aero theme looks a bit more organized with its constant cool shade of blue. Even WMP is great (disregarding the bug many had with it wiping 3-4 seconds off their mp3's). Amazing overall experience, especially when you consider the fact that it ran smoothly on my 4 year old Turion x2 1.5GHz, 768MB mem, with Aero turned on and all effects enabled. Screw the RC, the beta build itself was fit for release imho. I am proud to say that I am quite impressed with Windows 7.

The superbar is a great new addition to the host of features available in W7 and personalization is diffantly easier and more rewarding than the previous windows operating systems. Althought Microsoft should really consider a rewrite and build it from ground up; Windows 7 will be the best thing that ships out of redmond (ofcourse next to Windows XP). The Release Candidate is brilliant and has fixed alot of bugs that I've noticed throughout the development(leak builds) and well theres still bugs but I'm sure they will be fixed soon.
