FEATURES OF WINDOWS 7

 SPEED
 Windows 7 brings a more responsive and active feel and
Microsoft has spent a lot of time and effort getting the start menu
response just right.

 COMPATIBILITY
 In simple terms, compatibility on windows 7 will be far better
than it was with vista.
 Many programs that individuals and companies used on
windows xp did not work immediately and required updates, but
with windows 7 almost all applications that work on vista should
still run.
 In essence, windows vista has done most of the hard work for
windows 7 in this respect.

 LOWER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS


 Lower hardware requirements
 Vista gained a reputation for making even the heaviest hardware
look rather ordinary. Windows 7, however, will run well on lower
end hardware, making the transition from window xp less painful.

 WINDOWS SNIPPING TOOL


 Windows 7 includes an application to capture, save and share
“snipped” images from your desktop.
 MULTIPLAYER GAMES
 Microsoft has revived 3 xp multiplayer games.

 PERFORMANCE (IMPROVED)
 For sleep mode to reconnect with wireless networks, limited
background processes to those needed for currently used devices,
faster desktop searching, and easier setup for external devices.

 LIBRARIES
 Make it easier to find, work with, and organize documents, music,
pictures, and videos scattered across your pc or network.

 WINDOWS TOUCH
 Windows Touch – support for computer touchscreen
 AERO SNAP
 Drag a window to any edge of the display and it will
automatically re-size.

 AERO PEEK
 Point to the right edge of the taskbar to watch open windows turn
transparent, revealing all your hidden icons and gadgets.

 AERO-SHAKE
 If you have a crowd of Windows open but want to focus on just
the one you can all you have to do is grab it by the title bar (at the
top) and shake with the mouse. This minimizes all the other
Windows leaving just the one you’ve grabbed on the desktop.

 AERO TEMPLATES, THEMES


 New backgrounds and themes unique and created for Windows 7
(including free additional themes downloadable from Microsoft).
 WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER 12
 An upgrade from version 11 that plays the most popular audio
and video formats.

 STACKING
 You simply drag a Window to the sides of your screen and it will
stick automatically to the side filling half the screen, making it
quick and easy to view documents side by side. Move to the top
and it will maximize to the whole screen.
