Now that computer manufactures have been given Windows 7, I thought I’d remind everyone that it is possible to preorder Windows 7! Preordering will allow you to have the DVD in your hands on October 22 of this year. No lines, no scrambling to get the DVD.
Just make sure you know which version of Windows 7 you’re getting. For most home users, Windows 7 Home Premium will be fine. If you think you may need a little extra features in networking, or encryption, Windows 7 Professional may be the best choice. And if you are a geek like we are, you may just have to have Windows 7 Ultimate!
Just be sure that you get the full version. This way you can install windows without having to prove that you have previously owned a prior version of windows like Windows Vista. If you have a Windows Vista CD, or you don’t mind playing tricks with Windows, save yourself some money and buy the upgrade version of Windows 7. Just keep in mind that clean installs will be more involved, complex, and timely, but hey, a dollar saved is a dollar earned… or was that a penny.
Amazon has a nice selection of computers to choose from, and as the months pass by, we’ll see computers touting the advances inherent in Windows 7. Amazon’s reviews of products can many times give you a good idea about the products performance out of the box, at home or the office.
This is great. I am shopping for a new computer. Please pass on any deals you come across.
