Windows 7
« on: October 16, 2009, 03:25:00 PM »
Anyone else find the "new" GUI annoying? I use XP/Vista several times a week through VB so it's not like i lost my feel for windows, but i absolutely hate the interface for 7. I find it takes me longer to get things done in 7 then the others, but it runs better then Vista so i find myself using it.

So far so good.  I am still getting the feel of the libraries.  I like the new set up for the bar at the bottom.  No major complaints yet.

Oh..minor issue I miss the speedy access to screen rez that Windows employed previous to 7.  It adds a step that I feel is silly.

Meh.  I like 7 better than anything since XP SP2.

Download a beta iso and use Virtual Box to play with it.

Knuck,

I kinda like the right click - screen res option. The start bar is one of the things annoying me, but i guess its a matter of getting used to it
