been f**king with with the computer(s) all weekend - god damned audio drivers, and alternating between 7 on older hardware and XP on newer hardware. I'm switching - 7 is better - looking and running. Much better at managing resources: Despite the lowly 2.8 rating (of how many 7 features will be in use) it doesn't run slow at all, it restarts much faster than the quad-core 2.3 with XP, and is generally quite snappy. On new hardware it will be even way better yet. I'm biting the bullet and reinstalling.
Go Vikings!

Yes, those are extra-large icons, I like 'em. Those rings are wacky, I don't see those; I think that was first usage of Printkey before reboot.
Everything's where you'd expect it to be OS-wise, It's good. It's definitely more intuitive. I was railing on it tonight: video, music, picture thumbnails, picture preview, web - the music isn't skipping; the new request waits it seems. Nice. This is the older 1.7 single-core, 1.5 gig hardware now... "quad-core" means there's actually four 2.3 processors.
I could install in 64 on the new box, I think I might.
Jared, I'm drinking your beer tomorrow if I don't hear otherwise - sorry G I tried; two full weeks is a good long time. and it's so, chocolaty...
and of course I have a easy-installing, perfectly-working Windows 7 Ultimate for anyone who sends me a mailing address. queasyfish at the dot com that ends with two letter o's. mention the blog in the subject line. If you're not a friend of a friend, tell me an interesting story about the world and your place in it.
The default Windows Media Player is perfect.
