Guest Harry Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I recently installed a beta version (build 7000) of this O.S. The installation went very well and on a previously formatted disc, completed in 20 minutes. All of my Vista software was installed without problems. I realise that this a beta version, and as such may be subject to quite a number of improvements and bug fixes during the next few months. My initial impression though is that this a good system, but not very much better than Vista. There is an on board defragmentation tool, which operates automatically, in addition to spectacular new desktops, but overall it looks more like the result of a Vista service pack. Being quite satisfied with my currentVista ultimate, I am at this stage definitely not prepared to spend money again on this "new" operating system as soon as it appears in the shops.

You should post in one of the beta newsgroups where your comments will be useful to the MS employees who regularly read those groups. Look on the Microsoft website where you got the beta and you'll see how to connect to the beta newsgroups and how to give feedback. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
