Ribbon UI in Windows 7 vs Office 2007? -

Why is the Ribbon UI different (i.e. paint and wordpad) in windows 7 as compared to Office 2007. Has Microsoft decided not to follow their own long and detailed requirements for making Ribbon UI apps?

I think it may have something to do with office quot;codenamequot; 14 see here it looks alot like windows 7 http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/20...

The Ribbon interface is exactly the same as it is in Office 07.

Can you download Windows 7 BETA and put it on a cd not a dvd? -

Can you download Windows 7 BETA and copy it to a cd to make an Operating system cd or do you have to do it to a dvd?

Just dvd. Not really worth it though, too many bugs/freezes that need to be worked out. I would wait for beta 2.

No, Windows 7 Beta is to large for a CD. The 32bit version is 2.44GB The 64bit version is 3.15GB

yes but i think it takes like 7 cds

Is there a upgrade advisor for windows 7 ? -

I have a comp that came with a celeron d360 and vista basic but since i have changed the mem to 2gb ddr from 512k and the processor to a duel core celeron e1200 the vista advisor says you can run premium no problem but is there one for windows 7

Windows 7 has the same system requirements as Vista, and actually performs better than Vista does on low-end hardware. Note, however, that Windows 7 is still in beta, thus you may experience problems installing it. Back up your data before you install.

windows is a beta program for professional testers and is not a finished operating system it won t be released to the public till 2010 why would u want to take a chance on screwing up ur comp on a unfinished program

wndows 7 requires less than vista, it runs vista fine? it ll run 7 fun.

ask windows by email

It isn t out till 2010 so don t worry. You will probably have a new PC lol.

Is windows 7 stable enough for everyday use? -

Ive read and watched everywhere that windows 7 beta is actally more stable than vista (which is what I have) Do you think 7 is stable enough for everyday use? Thanks

Vista is the worst version of Windows OS I ve ever had, yet its the most attractive (and what I m using.) Windows XP is definately the most stable of the OS s... but it is said that this new up and coming Windows 7 will be great. PS. The reason it is coming out so soon is because Windows quot;Mojavequot;/Vista failed to market because of its flaws.

I am using the now. Though its rough around the edge (IE getting your drivers to work, when they arent intended for Windows 7) I am now using it for every day use. I love it, its exactly like vista (Only better?) without all the negative points IE: overtaxing your system resources on idle etc. Very stable for me so far. One crash when I Tabbed out of a video game.. but I have repeated it several times since with no issue.. so i didnt lodge a bug issue. Though i would not recommend using it unless you are technical and versed in computers.

no

I ve played with windows 7 and I like it. That being said... What s everyday use? Is it surfing youtube for the most awesomest clips, or is it crunching time-sensitive data with which your job is on the line? If it s the former, go ahead. If the latter, stick with vista. There are millions of people using Vista, discovering bugs, reporting problems, and many MSFT engineers working on keeping it going. On the other hand, there are a handful of people beta-testing Windows 7, and it is not a priority to fix a bug or cater to each user individually, as the impact of a bug is small. My vote: Dual boot and use Win7 when you re feeling giddy, use vista when you have work to do. Keep backups.

Being that it is only in Beta right now - the answer to that question would still be no. It is certainly ok to use it and check out the system.

I think Vista is already very stable, so if Windows 7 is quot;more stablequot; then yes, it should be stable... until August 1st when it automatically deactivates ;)

Don t bother with Windows 7. just wait untill it s release. Vista is VERY stable now. ive not had ANY problems with it what-so-ever. however i still prefer XP to conserve memory :)

Make sure your useing IE 8 then donload windows 7 Beata for free and give it a test drive. Dont forget to create a restore point befor you download 7

I have a question on Windows Internet Explorer 7? -

I recently upgraded from Explorer 6 to Explorer 7 and am having LOTS of problems. I know how to go in and uninstall 7 but what happens after that. How do I get 6 back? I am pretty new at this computer stuff!! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

After you uninstall IE7, IE6 will automatically be restored. You ll want to run Windows Updates afterwards though, to make sure you re not missing any security patches.

I m not exactly sure so I don t want to give bad advice but I also hate the 7th edition! It s awful.

if you want six back after you uninstall seven you can always download it from: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/... hope this helps, and in thanks would you please check out: http://4einc.info

Around how much pound;pound; is windows 7 ultimate gonna cost? -

thanks in advance, freddy b Cant wait!!

Around ￡300. I want you to read what i have to say. I have used windows XP, Vista home edition, Vista Basic, Vista ultimate and of all of those Ultimate was the worst. If you want to pay ￡300 for an OS that will take up around 600mb of RAM when no programmes are runnning, then thats your chocie but if I were you I would go for XP

I agree with Chip. I don t know why you can t wait because it s absolutely useless just another gimmick. I bought Vista home premium and I regret it my computer was faster with XP. My advice: If you have XP stay with it. Please. Or just get a Mac... Which can have Windows and Mac OS on it.

Probably around the same cost as Vista Ultimate ($239.99) http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Vista-Ulti...

Changing OS between windows 7 and xp? -

I want to beta test windows 7 but i want to go back to xp once im done is can I go back to xp using only the system recovery CD?

Just install windows 7 in another partition other than the partition u used for xp. while installing dont give upgrade, just give new installation n select any other drive. or just use a virtual pc software.

Partition your hard drive, so your PC thinks there are 2 HDD s. Then install Windows 7 on the new partition. You will have a choice when your PC boots up on what OS you want to load.
