[Rave] Windows 7

I am speechless how good Windows 7 is. I love the speed, the interface.

I'm less than a few days into it, Oleg but I don't know if I like Windows 7 or a fast new computer with 8G of memory the most.

I'll get back.

I know what you mean. It took me 1 year in the half to dump XP.

I quite like it myself...what I don't like is how much it would cost me to upgrade my other systems, so they continue to live in XP land.

With a little search on Google you can find a patch to enable remote desktop in Home editions of Win 7.

I've been using it for over a year on a old computer I turned into a server with no problems.

I also like Windows 7. A lot. The first version I used was Win95 and Win 7 is the most stable one I got since that time.

Remember that. There are always alternatives to Windows 7 futures like VM or remote control desktop.

...or VNC, or NoMachine NX, or maybe a few others.

TeamViewer is good, but it's closer in function to GoToMyPC or GoToAssist...in other words, uses a central server to facilitate connections. VNC is closer to RDP without the encryption layer (which some variants might provide, such as Ultra or Tight).

Used to loooooove XP as it was just so good at installing after a format. But it didn't last, things started to creep in. Took a few years though.

What I like about Windows 7, is even a bowl of jello can install it.

It's just not possible to remain polite when people tell me that they have troubles installing Windows 7.

Windows 7 hasn't radically improved my life or anthing, I just like that I can clean slate the computer and reinstall in so little time.
Granted, re downloading the massive sum of updates is no better than it always was for any version.

I wonder if some day they will make a Windows that can survive a year not needing to be fixed?

Truly. I've been using Win7 since it came out in October 2009. Already installed SP1 and still going strong after all these years. At work, I've been pushing people off XP for some time and getting them on Win7.

(1) Why should Windows be any different from every other OS?
(2) As soon as everything else in the world stops being fixed/updated/changed/created/etc.

My current PC has Win 7 Installed close to 3 years now. I may a slight slow down on boot up nothing major like on XP and amazingly I have not seen the BSOD yet!!

I don't think any of my Windows Install had to be fixed in less than 2 years unless I had hardware or hd space issues.

My work laptop with win7 is going on 3 years with the same install and my home PC running XP is about to hit 3 years with the same install.

Did you wake up after a couple of years?
