The Windows 7 "Problem Step Recorder" is an awesome piece of functionality.

Launch the app and start the recording process. The application will then record your screens (individual image shots) and chain them together in an output file. Not only do you get the screens, you get text descriptions of what you exactly did.

This is nifty if you're in IT. You can utilize this for user guides, defect recording, usability, etc.





Also, try the Windows Key + left, right, down, or up. This should start docking the active window against the side of the monitor.

 

so say i just ordered a new laptop ... will i get a coupon for windows 7?

dell is doing free upgrades from the factory on windows 7 but i dont wanna wait for that release and i bought a already built one anyways. prolly not gonna get the windows 7 upgrade huh?

 

Yes. Layering and caking on operating systems isn't the best. You often retain system files that aren't really need, but the upgrade won't delete in the event of an uninstall of the new OS.

If the machine is new, you're eligible for the free 7 upgrade when it's released on the 22nd.

 

woot, guess i'm getting the free upgrade

i just got an inspiron 14, ordered it like 20 minutes ago.

 

so windows 7 is greater then vista?

 

I <3 Windows 7...it runs much quicker than Vista.

 

i'm thinking about getting windows 7. my computer is pretty cluttered and i need to reformat anyway, might as well upgrade.
