Windows 7 is weird.....

[switch842]

Working on getting the new laptop all set up. Windows 7 is very, very odd. It'll definitely take some getting used to. No opinion yet on good or bad, just still weird. The no icons on the desktop thing is very strange. And I have 2 HDs (woot!) and a quad core (quadruple woot!), so that adds stuff into the mix. Quad Core = major awesomeness!! Current laptop is only single core. So, trying to work in Photoshop while listening to music in Media Player was pretty much an exercise in futility. Now I can do that with no problems! LOL Oh, and speaking of, I have now been updated to PS CS4 as hubby no longer had the files for version 7 that I am currently using.

So, yeah. Got Chrome installed. Getting that configured. Will get Firefox set next. Installing that just in case I decide to go back to it from Chrome. There's still some things with Chrome that I'm not liking too much. So, we'll see....

Windows 7 is a bit of a learning curve, but it's about a gazillion times better than Vista was. :) I adore some of the new features it has, like if you press the Windows Key and then the Left or Right arrow key, it will automatically resize your window to take up just the right or left side of the screen. Awesome!

I will admit, I do like the snap feature. That has been very handy for transferring files over. I just need to keep playing and get it all figured out.
