I downloaded Windows 7 on Friday and installed it on my 1.6Ghz Atom netbook with 2GB RAM, and I am impressed with the performance. It's running snappier than XP does, and so far, without problem.
Anyone else scoop up a license for the beta and take a look at it? I can't be the only one... -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

I'm confused. They did this same crap with Windows 2K and ME all at the same time. If I remember right, 2K was based on NT and ME was based on Win 95/98. What's the big selling point differentiating these two? So far I'm guessing it's just a better version of Vista? So far, no real problems with Vista here, but to run it on my desktop I upgraded to a quad core and I'm using 4 gigs of RAM since Vista is such a memory hog. Office 07? They can keep that crap...
