Well, I completed my goal of installing Windows 7 over this weekend. _place_holder; I installed both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. _place_holder; I really did not spend much time in the 64-bit realm, other than to discover that there is still not support for flash, etc.
I am not sure that I have grown to appreciate the new task bar yet. _place_holder; I think that is going to be something that is going to have to warm up to me over time.
I did like the inclusion of the codecs such as H.264. _place_holder; HD content from sites like Revision 3 is playable in Windows media player. _place_holder; I was also able to play DVR-MS (media center) files with media player.
That is all that I have right now. _place_holder; Just a few quick impressions and comments. _place_holder; As I am insprired, I will post more later.
BTW: _place_holder; I don’t know that I am digging the visuals in the new Windows Live stuff. _place_holder; I am not sure if it is my eyes. _place_holder; The UI _place_holder;seems less intuitive _place_holder;or out of kilter,  _place_holder;and it _place_holder;takes up more than a reasonable amount of desktop real estate. _place_holder; I have been using Live Messenger and Live Mail.
