Love MinWin

Windows Seven Will Blow Apple away.

Windows Seven said they wont have any spywere and virus’ that mean no more Virus protection !”

Look how wrong you were about everything you said! Win7 is a copy of OS X in GUI and features. OS X still runs circles around it. Windows is still plagued with spyware and viruses. Balmer is a big fat idiot who only cares about money.

Microsoft’s next innovation will be what Apple did yen years ago. Oh and by the way, Eric Traut’s first programing job was with Apple, where he wrote the 68k to PPC interpreter. He later wrote a better version called Speed Doubler for Connetix, and of course Virtual PC. So his Windows history might be a little off because he was using real GUI computers at the time, not DOS based toys.

Flexible person can make critical decision. Decision maker is not only do the things right but also do the right things. Many people don’t realize that. This phenomenon can be tired one, but only wise people can give honest opinion in critical time. I have been wondering about this time, between USA and other country, I predict that it will recover as soon as possible. Your give great articles, it can be used for anticipate other problems in the future. And also, we can unite to be great partner. Online writer is part time job, but it was wrong. I’ve been several years raising and collecting money by doing this job. If I can, you can! I hope the slogan and my motto can motivate other people that read my comment, please don’t delete it. I will give you another proof. When I was child, technology is slow down and kicked by other subject. Now, we are depending on technology, right?

Interesting reading this post now as the versioning listed at the top was
NT 3.5/3.51
NT 4.0/4.5
2000 = NT 5.0
XP = NT 5.1
2003 = NT 5.2
Vista = NT 6.0
Seven = NT 7.0

But if you have seen the final RTM it is 6.1 for Windows 7. They claim its for application compatibility but does anyone know? Is the NT Kernal version 7? or just a minor update? I have read it was built on Vista code so it just sounds like Vista XP edition.

I am currently running the RTM and it seems stable and nice. Even when I did crash my IE8 (due to a website I suppose) it had no over powering affect on the DV video I pulling from an old digital 8 video camera via firewire which I have to say worked great considering the age between the two products.

I’ve read on many blogs that the install process of win 7 would have been faster, but I didn’t really noticed any improvement on it; especially if compared to vista. It takes 35minutes on fast machines and 1hour in slow ones.

[...] Now given that Vista went to market in early 2007 that makes the actual development time of Vista about 2.5 years – not the 5+ that everyone likes to throw around. Even based on those figures of a 2.5 year turn around for a new operating system the idea of Windows 7 being available in 2009 isn’t that far fetched. However there is another little tidbit that got a little flurry of activity in the blogosphere when it was mentioned that Microsoft had something they called MinWin running – running enough to be able to be used in demos.
