The machine is rebuilt and all applications re-installed. I said after installing the RC as an upgrade that I felt some of the Vista feel had come across. This install feels much better – like the beta that impressed me so much at the beginning of the year.
I recommend a clean install for Windows 7 if at all possible.
I’ll have to try re-installing Win 7 on that old laptop and see how it does. In theory it should run better than the beta.
First impressions – very impressed. I like this. Previous Windows clients have left me feeling so-so. They worked and did what I want but this feels right. The whole thing has a polish and well thought out togetherness that I don’t think has been there in the last few client OSs.
This is a winner.
