Microsoft released to the public last month a well-polished beta version of Windows 7. After three weeks of working with the new Windows operating system, I am mostly impressed with its stability and usability. Making this statement is a big step for me. I rejected Vista and linger happily with Windows XP. Overall, I have been pleased with what Microsoft has done with this latest chapter in the Windows OS saga. Is it perfect? No. Is it an OS that I will use by choice when the time comes to cut Windows XP loose? Probably.
