As I mentioned in previous post, Windows 7 still available for free download in one more week from now.

Heard it to be another successful OS after Windows XP. Windows 7 will be available for individual purchase in October this year.

Windows 7 Multitouch

It looks like a good OS yet still a big copy cat. Hope its multitouch feature work better than Apple multitouch. More user benefit from it means more development in future.

Touch screen demo including flick, rotate photo, zoom in/out, right click. To be honest, the right click feature should be more user friendly than Apple OS. What do you say? (more…)

Have you try free Windows 7 beta? If not, are you ready for the Windows 7 new features?

I’m not Windows fan, but believe it will be a big event for its release. It is first time Windows come with multi-touch feature for desktop. The feature may bring more business opportunities in future. What do you think?

The new hot awaiting OS: Microsoft Windows 7 beta is now available for free download. Beta testers should be able to answer how the new Windows perform.

Talk about Windows 7, we all doubt on its statement in my previous post. Anyway, Microsoft claim they listen to us for the past few years and build the new Windows 7 faster, more reliable and easier to do what you want. Download, setup and try out Windows 7 at your own should answer you up to certain extend.

Before heading to the download page, let’s check out the minimum recommended specs:

• CPU: 1 GHz 32-bit or 64-bit processor
• RAM: 1 GB of system memory
• HDD: 16 GB of available disk space
• Graphic card: Support for DirectX 9 graphics with 128 MB memory (to enable the Aero theme)
• DVD-R/W Drive
• Internet access (to download the Beta and get updates)

If your computer meet the minimum requirements, then heading to the Microsoft Official Windows 7 download page. Register yourself as Beta tester and download the DVD ISO. It should provide you an activation key to activate your Windows 7 evaluation copy. Although there are lots of leaked BT download, I still recommend to download from Microsoft Official latest build release (Of course, try at your own risk). (more…)

Although many say Microsoft Windows operating system is poor, it still the biggest player in Worldwide market. For example myself prefer MAC OS X Leopard, but it didn’t come as cheap as Windows price and also some hardware compatibility problem. At the end, I stick with Windows.

Actually not only me. Are you one of the Windows user here? I pick up the statistics from Google Analytics and found 71% Windows XP user, 27% Windows Vista user, and only 7% Macintosh user. From the results, we know most of the Windows user stick at Windows XP since it release on year 2002. Why? Are they waiting for better OS? Or they computer specs unable to support resources hungry Vista?
