Now Running Windows 7!
 

So far, seems much better than Vista. I'll report back after a couple of days of test driving it.

RLC or beta?


I'm doing alright with my Windows "Mojave"

Been running it for 2 weeks. Seems faster than Vista here too.



Have not tried to game on it... yet.

Cool, didn't know you were a Microsoft Beta tester also. Where did you get your device drivers? I had to write my own for Audio, Smart Card Reader, Wireless and Video using the Technet development kit. The video still needs some tweaking. Did you do a clean install or quasi upgrade from Vista?

Clean install. I have an MSDN subscription. I wrote some of my own drivers, but am still having problems with some

Which ones are you having problems with? Post a screen shot from your Win 7 device manager and maybe I can help.

I'm a beta tester as well, no crashes and faster and smoother than XP, I'm still having problems with the interface I used the "classic" interface on XP so now I'm dumbfounded because there is not a classic classic view, it looks like I have to get with the times. One issue I do have though is its automation of connections is almost too automated. I have my cell modem set up as a back up connection so for awhile the puter would see my BB via bluetooth and make a connection using valuable resources. I'm only running a gig of memory.

Many years ago I was active in the A and B testing of Office 97 and 00 so MS keeps on sending me the love, I passed on the XP testing though.

You can polish a turd, but in the end its just a shiny turd.

fwiw I have heard many online reviewers saying how awesome the Windows 7 beta is, how much faster and nicer it was than Vista at this point in the beta, and how several reviewers have gone so far as to say that Windows 7B is better than Windows Vista SP1!

I am going to grab a torrent of it myself later and replace my Vista 64 (I never use) with it and see how I like it.

I heard it described as Windows Vista that actually works. That sounded encouraging.

I'm still buying and Apple next time. I don't find fiddling around with a bunch of operating system stuff to be fun or the least bit entertaining. I'd like to have a tool that allows me to think about my work instead thinking about how to get the tool to work.

It must have worked!

Windows 7?.........

Heres a pic with never seen before "in-hiding" mb shop members... Too help us out on this new found technoligy.....Bot, is to the far right for a change in the pic, Enjoy...:P

Those are great commercials. Apple always has good commercials. The MAC guy played the part of a computer hacker in some movie that was pretty good. The name of the movie escapes me at the moment.

I've been testing Windows 7, too. Looks pretty nice but, it's hard to judge until the final version is out and it is tested with all the programs and device drivers I use.

Vista is working pretty well for me except for IE7. I still get IE7 crashes on my 64-bit desktop. Everything runs flawlessly on my 32-bit laptop though. The Vista Reliability Monitor is pegged at 10.00 on my laptop but around 7.00 on my desktop.

I notice that they left the Reliability Monitor out of Windows 7.
(Administrative Tools > Reliability and Performance Monitor > Reliability Monitor)

My reliability monitor is my ears and mouth. If there's steam shooting out my ears and a stream of foul language spewing out of my mouth, that's an indication that reliablity is "low."
