This past weekend, I bit the bullet and installed Windows 7 BETA on my work laptop, replacing Vista. This is pretty big, given that at work we’re still standardized on Windows XP. My move to Vista last year was an important leap of faith as it was, so going to Windows 7 (aka W7) marks an even more risky foray into the world of Microsoft Operating Systems. And going with beta makes it risk combined with cavalier abandon.
I have survived.
And it’s been pretty fun.
Here are some of the things I’ve noticed so far that are worth mentioning. I should point out that some of these may have been there in Vista and I just never noticed them.
To save on front page space, the rest is in the extended entry.
