Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit 1-Pack for System Builders

Comment:
The best OS microsoft as made so far !

Comment:
Defiantly my favorite windows yet. Highly recommend upgrading from vista or xp.

Comment:
I had Windows XP and I needed to go to Win 7.The OS is all right. Quite a few imporvements from XP.However I find that MS still wants too much money for the people that want to upgrade. That's why I purchased this OEM version.

Great OS to upgrade to from XP, skip Vista and switch to Windows 7. It will take time to get used to but its stable and haven't encountered any blue screens since the switch

Obviously, Microsoft had some issues to solve with XP and especially Vista. Windows 7 is, to my knowledge, an operating system that combines fluidity, security (or at least it feels secure and problem-free) and allows a lot of freedom to the user.I lost so many hours on forums trying to troubleshoot all kinds of things about softwares and hardware (i.e. RAM) that didn't work as it should or didn't work at all because of their interactions with the OS. Since I installed Windows 7 pro, the few problems I had were all solved by the debugger, network analyser, or whatever help tool included.Everything is intuitive. I rarely look for more than 10 minutes when I try to do something I never did without help(like connecting to an external network).Of course, I only recommend the 64-bit pro version ; Home edition doesn't have some important features -important even for a student like me- (and it's not clearly indicated what's missing in the summaries). And as of the 64-bit part, well, let's not get into arguments whether or not an OS being able to support more than 3-4ish gigs of RAM and full 64-bit processing (and more) is necessary. It is or will be, that's all. You will be very sorry if you buy a smaller version of Windows 7 (Basic, Home and 32-bit) and find out after some time that it's missing something important.

Best Microsoft Operating System yet!Definitely worth the upgrade.

Got this to replace my Vista 64-based HTPC, which kept flaking out (power-on to strange states; disconnects of audio from HDMI, etc). Have not experienced any major issues, though S3+S4 suspend on my platform (G41M-E2SH) is still buggy.

Got this as a gift for xmas had ot wait to install the Hitachi 500 gb hard drive, really easy install, i even made a bootable usb drive and installed it in less than 13 minutes. the layout is different, but i still preffer the winxp start menu so i made it happen, other than that i am shocked that it is doing well with all my games

Comment:
With lower operating requirements than vista and considerably faster on start up Windows 7 is the New XP. The beauty of the Professional edition is that you can run a emulated XP environment which hence more compatibility with the products that you love. Strongly recommend for anyone that buys a new system.

Well, I was using XP since its release now and it was time for me to upgrade so with my new PC I got windows 7. For 140$, you want to get something good. It is but its still not the ultimate OS we all dream of. I got some issues at first and second installing but its probably due to the fact that I'm not a professional of Windows, just as a lot of people. Anyway, consider windows 7 as THE upgrade if you are still using XP. Nothing to add, its just Windows after all. All you want from it is to work the best it can and it is possible.

Comment:
Overall, Windows 7 is a nice improvement over Windows Vista and a great improvement over Windows XP. It takes some getting used to the new Control Panel and the placement of some of the legacy settings in Windows XP, but if you've used Vista for any amount of time, it should be relatively familiar.

Comment:
I accidentally installed windows xp on another drive, and for whatever reason the original hard drive information seemed lost. However, because of its backup function that the home edition lacked, I managed to load the windows image that was made 1 week prior to my mistake via the free hard drive I received in their promo. Buy it whenever there is a promo, you won't be disappointed.

Comment:
Love windows 7 for making devices work in harmony, and ease of use. This will make media share and organising files in the future easy to do and enjoyable. Greatly reccomended for anyone wanting to set up a home network, or just enjoy the UI.

Comment:
I used WIndows 7 home premium since the initial launch date. I have to move to the professional version because of the lack of support for dual cpu of W7 home version.

Comment:
Good performance and good design. An improvement over vista. Once you get used to the snap feature it is hard to get used to a different os.

Comment:
XP mode is great, integrates seamlessly into Windows 7 with even the tray icons in the Windows 7 tray. Its very stable, I have had no crashes or freezes in the year I've owned it.

Comment:
I've been using 64bit version for a few months. It's been pretty stable, doesn't have the annoying popups of vista. Sometimes a little harder to find drivers (if there's no Vista/7 drivers available for older hardware). But much better than the previous OS.

Comment:
This is easily the best OS that Microsoft made compared to all the other OS. Never get any error messages, everything just runs fine. Recommended.

Comment:
If you're still on Windows XP, it's time to upgrade! Windows 7 loads faster, looks nicer and has a lot of new and better features.Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements for this 64bit operating system.

Comment:
64 bit and windows 7 is the way to go, dont waste your money on anything else but Windows 7 Pro it has all the features you could need minus the select  few Ultimate has for the extreme needs of a only so many users.

Comment:
This OS is on all the computers I frequently use. I have two left with XP and one with Vista and their time will come. I much prefer Win 7 over all the others.

Use migwiz and export to transfer your settings from windows on other machines to transfer your data and informations.

Comment:
I made a most welcome switch from vista to windows 7. This windows 7 interface is user-friendly and you got a lots of options such as gadgets. All of them can be easily turn off so they aren't annoying

Comment:
Having been on Vista for the past 2 years, Windows 7 seems to be way more polished. Everything just feels better and works.No crashes other than the infamous 0x7e BSOD, but that is likely due to some weird combination of nvidia drivers and my blu-ray drive/software.I like the new file sharing account group, works fine with a windows 7 starter on my netbook. Reminds me of how easy file sharing used to be like in the old days. No idea on sharing with a different OS, might be an issue for some, I never tried it yet.SSD support (according to the internet) I don't pretend to understand the details. But it is a plus.Overall a highly recommended product.

Comment:
This isn't really a "NEW OS", just really a refresh of what VISTA should of been. However this OS is really nice! I highly recommend it.
