Windows 7 Beta

[Thomas]

I've just installed Windows 7 Beta! I've just started to play around with it, and it's a decent upgrade from Vista, but still has the basic Vista-like feel.

I'll be getting picture, videos, etc... to show off some of the cool new features brought to me by Windows 7.


From the Desktop, you can jump different tabs in Internet Explorer as if they were different windows.
It's easier to hide like 50 windows up, so when you're watching epic pr0n alt+tabbing is more effective.
Windows media player has a new lighter, more funtional version that comes with Windows 7.
So far, I haven't found massive compatability issues like what happened with Vista.

How do you get the beta?

How do you get the beta?
Download it (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/beta-download.aspx) and install it. However, it's not good to do this if you don't know what you're doing with a computer. I threw in a 40gb hard drive that I had lying around from an old computer to install it on there.
