I have heard that Windows 7 became generally available today. As I have said elsewhere, no version of Windows is safe to use on the average home computer. Be warned.
I have also heard that it is difficult (impossible) to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7. Fortunately, I do not have to worry about that. My machine came with Windows 2000 Professional and is too small to run XP, Vista, or 7. I have developed a tool that I call the Windows Upgrade Advisor. It works with any version of Windows, even 3.1! I hope that you find this tool useful.
I heard something on the radio this morning that went something like this:
“Last night I set my bed to Microsoft Sleepnumber 7. Now it’s full of bugs and has no support.”
