Ok while I am ticking down the last 10 mins before my 90 Mins Bus journey home I thought I would share this with you all.
A few of you might already know this but if not you can download Win7 RC1 now request a beta key for the install And this will be active until JUNE 2010 so you can get a free Year out of this worth a go for those thinking of soon upgrading or doing a clean install even if its a dual boot or just to have a peek. Ive loaded it on my media center and found a few apps I use dont work on like deamon tools for one But other then that I must say Its looking good. Def worth a look for free |

I tried it !
TBH stay away for a bit or untill the full release in about 5 months or so, there was only about three game I could play out of 10 or 11 I had installed. BF2 wont work & so to Crysis ! There are drivers available but only the BIG named brands like Creative & ASUS & there all BETA. On the plus side it runs like a dream on my i7 PC & makes Vista look even more shit, it has some nifty little things like desk top back grounds that shuffle, the side bar is now quicker to boot. I will get Win 7 becuse of its performance over Vista... This post has been edited by Andi-C: May 29 2009, 07:41 PM  |
