Rick Brewster 1,789 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Wow. Windows Anytime Upgrade took less than 5 minutes.

Overclock that, and I'll be able to rival Rick's rig, if you don't count the HDD. Then again, I could look for an SSD too. That would be especially nice with my Win7.

DarkShock 49 Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 Hey, if I upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premiem and decide to upgrade to Pro later will I have to back-up my files or will they be deleted. I was going to ask Microsoft, but I couldn't find a place to send them a question.

I was going to ask Microsoft, but I couldn't find a place to send them a question. Windows Anytime Upgrade will upgrade that in 5-30 minutes, depending on your computer. You don't even need to download anything or even put the disc in. You just have to type the new product key and activate it again. No data will be lost (though your taskbar will be repopulated with IE8, WMP12, and Explorer if you've unpinned any of those). I think it forgot a couple other settings, too, but I can't remember which ones, so obviously they weren't important.

Oh, that's right you overclocked yours to 3.6 or so. I was thinking ~3.8ghz Phenom II vs 3ghz (can't really recall) i7. Sadness. Quote Placeholder, new signature under construction.

Rick Brewster 1,789 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It's just not on store shelves yet, so to speak. Many businesses, professionals, and students can get it, but it won't be generally available until October 22nd.

Toasty 0 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I've mostly switched to Ubuntu. Still pop into Windows 7 every now and then, but only when I really need something that I can't get to work in Wine. Though Windows 7 is definitely shiny. And much, MUCH better than Vista. Good lord, it's so much better. Vista was barely usable by my standards, but Windows 7 is very nice to work with in comparison. Still doesn't have anything on Linux, though. Yay for Terminal and constant updating. =P On a side note, I'm likely going to be building a $1700 Corei7 PC for someone.
