My question is Windows 7: when and how will it be worth the trouble once it comes out...
I just loaded a beta of Win 7 on one of my laptops and from what I've been playing with so far it is a vast improvement over Vista. It seems much faster, I've noticed greater battery life, and it doesn't ask you to OK every time a program needs to access the web! The main reason I loaded it was to see the improvements in Medis Center and let me tell you, if you've been using earlier versions of it you'dd bee quite impressed. I'll tell you more as I discover new things. . .
