The Short On Windows 7- You’ll Want It.
Saturday, August 8, 2009 posted by Kent Computers
Windows 7 will be here October 22, 2009, and this time it looks like Microsoft got it right.
The last version of Windows, Vista, was not well received, largely because it was really only about half-way done. But developers have been hard at work: fixing bugs, making performance gains, and adding polish. Their work looks like it’s really paid off.
Before you upgrade, check your computers to see if they’ll be compatible with Microsoft’s Upgrade Advisor tool.
One of my biggest disappointments is that there’s no supported upgrade option for those who are using Windows XP. But a fresh install is always an option, or if you’re willing to buy a commercial tool, for $40, PCMover allows you to upgrade Windows XP computers.
