November 5, 200817 yr Sounds interesting, I'm interested particularly in what your "Friend" thinks of the new UI. :) Well, it turns out that he got ripped and ended up with a crappy version that didn't have the new taskbar :| It looks, runs, and feels like vista. He's going to try to find another one now :P Tell you "friend" to enable the new features. Edit: [hide=Few pics]New taskbar with thumbnails You can use small icons too New calc, very useful for programmers (it actually is in programmer mode) [/hide]

November 5, 200817 yr Yeah I'm still not convinced to change from my good old windows xp. Too much eye candy for my liking. Looking forward to fedora 10 though.

It looks fat! Seems to have some nice features nevertheless.

November 5, 200817 yr This is the calculator in standard mode It also comes with unit conversion. What would have been cool is currency conversion directly linked to some database on internet.
November 5, 200817 yr I've been running it for two days now...and it's great. Automatically installed EVERY driver that I needed (including printer drivers). It boots up and shuts down quickly. It uses almost twice as much memory as XP idle, but the CPU usage is slightly lower. It has many more services enabled by default. However, having 2GB+ of RAM means you won't even notice it. It runs very well overall. I've been looking around, and there are some very nice new features. I enabled the new "superbar" on the bottom. The search function is also incredibly useful now (start, search). I've got google chrome installed and it feels great. I'd upload a pic but image shack's being feisty right now. Once I get back from classes, maybe. Runescape Name: "unbug07"Expand your mind.
November 5, 200817 yr Where can you go download it? I was going to wait for the Beta in December, but I kind of would want to try it before lol.

What the #$%@ is a "BS" button on a Windows 7 Calculator?!?!?!? :o (Honestly, I've never seen THAT before!) <<<Quote Snip>>> I'd upload a pic but image shack's being feisty right now.

If you're doing it right, PhotoBucket is far more impressive!) ~D. V. "Ehhhhhhh... What?!?" Devnull and normally with a cool mind.(Warning: This user can be VERY confusing to some people...

November 5, 200817 yr Where can you go download it? I was going to wait for the Beta in December, but I kind of would want to try it before lol. I think they haven't released any public betas yet, those come early next year. So, you'll have to go somewhere else lol. Pardon my asking, but ...

November 7, 200817 yr Gah, now i got a bit disappointed about MS and Win7. Microsoft won't support Hybrid SLI&CrossFire from scratch, they force Amd/Nvidia to make it work. Not that i use hybrid, but i don't see why... It works well in XP/Vista. http://www.custompc.co.uk/news/605145/h ... osoft.html J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé
November 8, 200817 yr It still looks behind OSX leopard EDIT: And i say that as someone who has a macbook pro with OSX leopard and very much prefers the interface to windows. I dont know whether my next pc purchase will be mac or another windows based gaming rig and i was hoping that windows 7 would be much more drastic a change than this and they would rethink there ui instead of adding shiny glass, which im not really fond of
November 8, 200817 yr You're assuming that MS isn't going to make any UI changes until the version after 7, whatever that would be. Look at this picture of Longhorn: And now think about what Vista looks like. That much of a difference. They will drastic changes before the release. I can promise you.
November 9, 200817 yr I was going to buy Vista next month...should I wait? I am Teh_King[My dA][My Last.FM][My Twitter]
November 10, 200817 yr I was going to buy Vista next month...should I wait? No, unless you are patient enough to wait till Holiday 2009 to get Windows 7. It also depends what operating system you have now, if you have XP and just want to upgrade the OS, it's not really worth it.
November 10, 200817 yr Author Yeah, DX 10 really isn't a big enough of a deal to warrent an upgrade from XP. However if you're buying a new PC than may as well get Vista.
