One big difference in Windows 7 is the better use of memory. Instead of
Vista grabbing all the memory and reluctantly letting you use a little bit
of it, Windows 7 requires far less and leaves more for your applications.

Hi John,
I used to run Vista Business with PS CS3 and now run Win 7 64
Professional with no problems for CS3. I get all 4 gig showing as

Get rid of Vista as soon as you can. Win 7 is much improved, though
you may have problems finding drivers for some of your printers,
scanners etc.

Win7 is nothing more than Vista with ReadyBoost turned off and the
task bar broken. Very little real-world difference between the two,
mostly a rebranding to deal with the fallout of Vista's launch. The
real irony is the Vista launch was far smoother than the XP launch,
few seem to remember how bad that was because even broken XP was a
major improvement over Windows Me. Windows 7 is actually the only
smooth consumer OS launch Microsoft has had other than Windows 3.1,
mostly because Windows 7 is merely a lightly tweaked variant of Vista
which should more correctly be called Vista SE.
