0Comments My Windows 7….So Far:16/01/09
Windows 7, I try to think of it as Vista Service Pack 3 except we will be expected to pay for it. I have now been running Windows 7 Beta Build 7000 as my primary OS for almost a week and felt it is time to write a few notes about what I have found I do and don’t like about our new glorified Vista.
People often say Vista was a flop and we should stick to XP due to driver/program incompatability, however I know many ‘internet users’ (as I call them) who say that Vista is allot easier to use, but then they do receive their laptop/PC already configured and up to date with drivers etc.
I understand this is of no fault of Microsoft; this is caused by other companies not jumping into the new OS quickly enough.

2Comments My Free Software World
After one of my Raid zero hard drives failed windows was no longer usable, so I have decided to use windows XP short-term and run an experiment.
I am going to install XP and only use software that can be legally found on the Internet for FREE. The computer must be usable and must not restrict the user because of the software. So moving on, I installed XP which was a minefield of problems from removing my old raid configuration to ‘overclocking failures’.
