Windows 7: Up and Running
Windows 7 is Microsoft’s latest version of its Windows operating system. Unlike its predecessor, Vista, Windows 7 offers incremental upgrades and is aimed at ensuring maximum compatibility with applications and hardware already supported in Vista. Microsoft’s key agenda around Windows 7 is to woo many of the Windows XP users who skipped Vista. Windows 7 offers significant performance improvements over its predecessors—most notably Windows Vista and Windows XP. It is still based on the Vista kernel, but comes with a redesigned Windows shell, a new taskbar, and a less-annoying User Account Control (UAC) system. There are also improvements in networking, in particular the introduction of a home network system known as HomeGroup. This compact book offers the quickest path for Windows XP and Vista users to get started with Microsoft’s new Windows 7 operating system. Microsoft has learned from the mistakes of Windows Vista, and Windows 7 shows it—this new OS is much faster and more stable. Millions of people have tried the public beta and Windows 7 Release Candidate, and many give the software high marks. Windows 7: Up and Running helps you be productive immediately. You’ll learn what’s new and what’s changed, as well as everything you need to get going, from installing to configuring the system. Windows 7 is poised to be a big hit among PC users, and with this handy guide, you can be up and running with this new operating system right away.
