Hello From Windows 7

Expand Post »
Just installed 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium. So far so good. I did a fresh install, reformatted the hard drive, and installed fresh.

Re: Hello From Windows 7
Hello from Vista I will probably be getting it soon, not quite sure I look the new task bar so much though, looks big and blocky in my opinion, definitely worth a try though.

The task bar doesn't look much different than Vista's.

Working in a desktop support environment has its advantages, I get to sit and play around with Win7, but no worries about it messing up my PC..
No doubt lots of people will be calling shortly with very stupid questions

Re: Hello From Windows 7
Okay, my very stupid question is:
Does Windows 7 still require those sluggishly slow virus programs, registry cleaners, spyware detectors/cleaners etc. etc. ???

Sorry, this double post is caused by my virus software updating in the background.
