Windows 7 - Countdown to Nirvana?


The newest operating system offering from Microsoft, called Windows 7, is due to ship October 22nd of this year.

Here are a list of early insights gathered from computer magazines:

  • Benchmarks indicate that Windows 7 is no faster than Vista.
  • Recognition of a device you plugged into a USB port is supposedly to better. Devices like cameras and camcorders should have slick wizards that assist in transferring your pictures and movies.
  • Have you tried to save some money by sharing a printer among various computers in your house? This process has been difficult in the past. Windows 7 implements something called HomeGroup that makes it easy to share printers, files and folders.
  • A feature called Libraries allows you to catalog items like photos and documents together.
  • One Click Wi-Fi. Windows 7 promises to connect more easily than Vista to Wireless Networks.
We have our fingers crossed. Hope for the best, plan for the worst!
