Windows 7: Pt1
Made the jump to 7 Professional earlier today from Vista Ultimate x64, the install went smoothly on Microsofts part however I did have a couple of issue with my RAID/Driver so I figured “Screw it, forget the RAID and go for a SSD later on”.
Got everything set-up and back to the status-quo, in record time I might add. Overall usability is blazing fast, my rig is fast so I haven’t really noticed any distinct change in performance and I don’t have any benchmarks to compare against, so that makes benchmarking rather pointless for me personally.
The “Superbar” takes a some getting used to, but so far the space gained from the removal of text-labels is great for how I use my machine, hopefully with time more developers will also add Jumplist-support which would cement my love of the Superbar’s design.
The main “review” will be coming at a later point, probably in the next couple of days, if you have any questions or screenshot requests, leave ‘em in the comments and I’ll be happy to oblige.
