Windows 7: The Newest version of Microsoft Windows
|
Windows 7 is the newest Operating System, released on 22 October 2009 by Microsoft Windows, for use on personal computers, including home and business desktops, laptops, netbooks, tablet PCs and media center PCs.
The Mac is the coolest OS and computer, and the Linux-based computers are expert-friendly and Windows-based computers are user-friendly but Windows computers get infected with spyware and malware and it is reason of headache of many people around the world. But still today, there are a huge number of users of Windows.
No matter where users intend utilizing Windows 7, it has something for everyone this to be more reliable, more responsive, and to make the things customers do every day easier, as its predecessor—Windows Vista—failed to win the hearts of consumers and was virtually shunned in the enterprise market. Complaints ranged from Vista's incompatibility with older software to its intrusive security measures and heavy horsepower requirements.
Windows 7 has a glassy look which has been inherited from Vista and apart from this, it has been added many more usability enhancements along with it. The UI features such as aero peek, desktop gadgets, aero shake, jump lists, themes and many more have been excellently embedded.
Windows 7 overcomes the drawback of Microsoft windows upgrade regarding the drivers with Device Stage which gives the flexibility to organize the pre-installed drivers.
It gives you flexibility to have specialized icons and pop-up menus with the help of which you can customize your devices like printer, pen drive, phone, camera etc.
The security feature of Windows 7 is much more powerful than Vista. The users are not allowed to access sensitive part of the programs as in Vista, but there is good balance and interaction in Windows 7 which makes the user feel more comfortable in accessing.
Networking was another issue in case of Vista, which is taken care in Windows 7 with the help of 'HomeGroup' which gets multiple PCs on network and allow users to share files by forming a group.
Now Windows 7 has come up with Windows Media Player 12 which has abilities to stream music and videos on the network. The device compatibility is still being upgraded and will be released with future service packs for Windows 7. Its 'Media Center' feature is most eye catching which has been enhanced from windows vista help. You can easily set up the cable card with Media center.
There are other cool features like the calculator making the mortgage payment calculations, Wi-Fi adapter for sharing the hot spot, cool graphics, and smart folder to arrange your libraries and many more.
