Windows 7

Windows 7 will be released around late October or early November. Based on what I have researched, it will be released at exactly October 22, 2009. Windows 7 Release Candidate can still be downloaded on Microsoft’s website. However after the release of the Windows 7, the Windows 7 Release Candidate will not be able to receive updates from Microsoft and support.



Windows 7 have greater features than Windows Vista. And based on people’s review on Windows 7 Release candidate, it is just like Windows Vista however the speed is like Windows XP. Here are some of the Top Features of Windows 7:



* Desktop – Introducing improved taskbar previews, bigger icons, pinning, and creative ways to personalize.

* HomeGroup – Takes the headache out of home networking, so it’s easier to share files and printers.

* Jump Lists – Speedy access to your favorite pictures, songs, websites, and documents.

* Snap – A quick (and fun) new way to resize and compare windows on your desktop.

* Windows Live Essentials – Must-have software for your PC—free! Get Mail, Photo Gallery, and other favorites.

* Windows Search – At last, searching your PC is as simple as searching the web.

* Performance improvements – It’s designed to sleep and resume quicker, be less memory hungry, and spot USB devices faster.

* Full 64-bit support – Windows 7 makes the most of powerful 64-bit PCs, the new desktop standard.

* Power management – New power-saving features are designed to help laptops run longer.

* Easier wireless networking – Windows 7 gets you online quicker, so you can work anywhere.

* Windows Media Center – Watch, record, and pause live TV (additional hardware required).

* Windows Touch – With Windows 7 and a touch-sensitive screen (additional hardware required), you don’t always need a keyboard or mouse.



I appreciate now Windows have totally realized that Windows Vista is really a memory hug Operating System. What I heard from my friend, this Operating System can run on an old Personal Computer. That means that Windows 7 is really fast and reliable Operating System. I still wait until it will be released so I can use the full features for Windows 7.
