I already miss Windows 7

By Nick Hodge | January 27, 2009

Can u make me a peecee nows?

After installing Win­dows 7 onto my work Dell XPS 1330, I have only restar­ted into Win­dows Vista three times. On a side note, I found out the XPS sup­ports 8Gb RAM via 2x667Mhz DDR2 SODIMMs. Will have to budget this, and a lar­ger hard drive. Maybe after July.

Now that the spare room is spare again, and this is where Gen­eral Melchett resides, I am back on Win­dows Vista.

And I miss Win­dows 7.

Oh, and Inter­net Explorer 8 Release Can­did­ate 1 is out there. If you are on XP or Vista, grab it. Win­dows 7 users will have to wait a little until “the next release of Win­dows 7”

There are some nice secrets lis­ted by MaximumPC

    Greet­ings Nick–
    My name is Jeff and I work with the Win­dows Out­reach Team. I took a look around some of your Win­dows 7 posts and liked what I saw and it sounds like you like what you have seen with Win­dows 7 so far too. Giz­modo has provided great cov­er­age of the Beta since its release, as you seem to have figured out. There is also a Win­dows Team Blog that is updated whenever Microsoft has import­ant Win­dows 7 news. Here is a link to that if you are inter­ested: http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/MainFeed.aspx
    Thanks for your interest in Win­dows 7. Microsoft appre­ci­ates your input.
    Jeff
    Win­dows Out­reach Team

    Pffft. I’m hanging out still for the ‘after’ pho­tos of the kit­chen renno.
