Hello Dialists:
For those of you considering using the new Windows 7 operating system, but are worried that your favorite dialing software might be incompatible, I have tested it with most of the popular dialing software and the results are good! I've tested it on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Here are the results: Windows 7 on 32-bit systems: Alemma 1.2 by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! Cardinal Directions Calculator by Precision Sundials- yes! Delta CAD 7.0 by Midnight Software- yes! Dialist Companion 1.1 by Fred Sawyer & Robert Terwilliger- yes! Orologi Solari 18.9 by Gian Casalegno- yes! Shadows Pro 3.1.1 by Francois Blayteron- yes! Sonne 2.20a by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! StundLin 1.02 by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! Sun 5.6 by R. Cernic- yes! Wall Declination Calculator by Precision Sundials- yes! ZW2000 1.2 by Fer de Vries-yes! ZW2000 2.0 by Fer de Vries-yes! Windows 7 on 64-bit systems: Alemma 1.2 by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! Cardinal Directions Calculator by Precision Sundials- yes! Delta CAD 7.0 by Midnight Software- yes! Dialist Companion 1.1 by Fred Sawyer & Robert Terwilliger- NO! Orologi Solari 18.9 by Gian Casalegno- yes! Shadows Pro 3.1.1 by Francois Blayteron- yes! Sonne 2.20a by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! StundLin 1.02 by Helmut Sonderegger- yes! Sun 5.6 by R. Cernic- yes! Wall Declination Calculator by Precision Sundials- yes! ZW2000 1.2 by Fer de Vries-NO! ZW2000 2.0 by Fer de Vries-yes! p.s. I've not seen any problems with Windows 7 so far. But it did take 4 hours to install the upgrade version on each computer! Be sure to update Windows at least twice after completing the installation and defragment. One immediate thing I noticed is that it boots up quicker than XP or Vista. The Media Center is greatly improved and very good if you like that sort of thing. John Carmichael
