Looks a lot different than Vista Windows Mail. But it seems to be playing ok. Top of the line menus are all goobered up but I will deal with it. ________________________________ From: Joe Tinney [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2009 3:54 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Now that Win7 is out , whos running it? I believe that is all part of the Windows Live services offering and you have to download those and a lot of other previously included applications.

I'm dual booting with Vista. Vista did a create job of setting up a dual boot system for XP and Vista in the past, I'm sure Win7 will too.

VM'd a 64-bit one with VMWare Workstation on Friday from an ISO, took 18 minutes from ISO boot to desktop on a modern hardware w/ 8GB RAM. "Vista R2" is a good way to describe initial impressions.

Bosak [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 5:09 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Now that Win7 is out , whos running it? Been running smoothly here. Have it both on a test desktop, and threw it on my laptop. Both have been running smoothly for now. IE8 is too buggy for me, installed FireFox. Office 2007 works with no problems. So far, I have not come across any software that I use normally that does not run in Windows 7. Much quicker boot time than XP/Vista on the same machine. Getting in the lower teens for boot time on the desktop, low 20's on the laptop. So... so far, so good. Christopher J.

(Merged 2 into 1) - Me From: Ken Schaefer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 07:00 hrs To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Now that Win7 is out , whos running it? We've had builds for about 4 months via TAP. Been running it on my main machine for several weeks now. The icon grouping thing takes a while getting used to (some ways it's faster, but if you had pet ways of using the older-style taskbar, some things are slower). Explorer doesn't lose folder column preferences anymore (thank goodness). IE8 has a bunch of bugs (and the IE task bar icon randomly doesn't display some tabs, which is really annoying). The positioning of the "show desktop" in the bottom right corner is great (you can drag your mouse there) unless you have a second monitor that extends your desktop to the right. Dunno if it's my chipset drivers but I have a heap of problems with USB power after a random number of sleep/resume cycles.

I loaded win7 in a vm the other day (I got my hands on it on Wed), and it took everything I pretty much *needed*. Quickbooks 9, Office 2007 etc etc. Sooo yesterday I dropped a new drive in and loaded it directly on my box (quad 9950, Geforce 9600, 3gb ram, 2x22' dvi screens, asus onboard audio/nic) System came right up, Nvidia already has a driver in Windows Update, MSN, Office, Quicbooks, Rocketdock, City of Heroes all work as expected. A few apps aren't running right (I am on the 64bit where my vista was 32bit) - CutePDF, MagicDisc, MountISO (all 'driver' related stuff) doesn't seem to load correctly. IMGBurn works, haven't tried Nero 9 yet, but will look at that today. I don't know about faster/slower/benchmarks, however, I think the added desktop stuff while may take a little bit to get used to (grouping icons, disappearing windows when you select stuff in toolbar) seems much more efficient. The 'changing' desktop is pretty nice too. The UAC has a gradiant scale. IE8 seems pretty good, the new 'private' version of the browser looks promising. The 'home' sharing setup with the keycodes is pretty neat, but I haven't tried it yet. I would have to say overall, Im pretty impressed with the 'beta' so far. So for today, I am going to stick with it as my primary computer at the house and see how stable it remains. Just curious what other people like about it too.
