we have been running the new windows seven for about two months now.. I like the look, but as far as being faster.. only on start up and shut down, from what I've seen.

You know

I've been hearing that Win7 is just like XP, in terms of speed and stability (something that cannot be said of Vista). However, the advice I've been getting from guys who build their own systems is wait until SP1 comes out before upgrading to Win7.

But don't expect all your XP apps to work.

Actually I never find anything that couldn't work on Win7, I'm using it since Oct 09.

Hard disk manufacturers are finally dumping the 512 sector size and doing away with using system BIOS. Upgrading to one of the newer, faster drives is the only reason I see right now to switch to Win7.
I hope they also make the SMART drive tech work as promised.

Mad Hatter: Until you begin using software designed to run on Win7 you'll not likely see anything run faster (except the OS itself).

we bought the new machine to complete our data base and wireless network... most of the time, I'm on my older media center... the new system is 64 bit, while the other two machines are 32... so most software isn't compatible. But as for the os.. its great, again love the look.
