Re: windows 7

I downloaded/installed it as soon as the RTM version came out. Fresh 64bit install over a Vista64 install.

The first thing that I noticed after playing around with it is that my laptop idles about 10 degrees celcius cooler with Windows 7. The kernel is much more efficient.

Some of the features I don't know how I lived without. Shaking a window minimizes all other windows, dragging a window to the left/right of the screen will cause it to take up half the screen, which has many awesome uses, and bringing a window to the top auto maximizes it.

Mine has been pretty much dead stable, although every once in a while when I unplug my laptop, I get a hard lockup, which sucks, but it doesn't seem common. It's probably just a driver issue.

Oh, and if you have a .edu E-Mail, you can get 7 Home Premium for 30 dollars!
