Microsoft Windows 7 Family Pack Upgrade to Home Premium Price: Too High or Just Fair?

October 26, 2009 · Filed Under Windows · Comment 

Do you think Microsoft Windows 7 Family Pack price is too high? For us, the answer is not really. That’s our personal evaluation of the prices Microsoft announced a few months ago. The Family Pack version of Windows 7 is priced at $149.95 when it was first introduced to the public. In fact, MS inadvertently confirmed that the price and availability of Windows 7 family pack upgrade  DVD ROM by referencing it in the licensing terms of a test version of Windows 7 RC2 that leaked onto the Internet.

PC or Video Games Compatible Under Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional and Ultimate

October 22, 2009 · Filed Under Windows · Comment 

As promised in our article on Windows 7 Update on Gaming, I am posting the PC games or video games for PC that have been found compatible with Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade (full edition can also now be purchased on Amazon, FYI). For PC games or video games afficionados, this could be viewed as a good news. For one, some games that run under Windows XP and Vista can still be played normally under Win7 without worries (for now). We’re not just sure if bugs or errors while playing these games will be discovered in the future. It’s too early to tell considering the short period of time Windows 7 has been released.

If you have a Windows 7 Home Premium or Windows 7 Professional editions, you could now upgrade your OS to Windows 7 Ultimate, the top version of the latest desktop PC operating system from Microsoft. The team behind Google Chrome OS (as I write this) could be doing some improvements on Google’s very own OS designed to compete with Windows 7. Who knows? :-)

Windows 7 Update on Gaming | Will Your Games Run on Windows 7?

October 22, 2009 · Filed Under Windows · 1 Comment 

After so much testing on the new Windows 7, most of the games tested ran smoothly and without noticeable degradation in game performance and stability. This was done by some of our teams and other sites which deal with one of the latest desktop PC operating systems in the market today.

Come to think that Windows 7 is still in its early stages, any glitch that may come along the way will be fixed and improved. Windows Vista introduced the games explorer which is improved on Windows 7 (see screenshot below) taking Windows 7 gaming a mile further. This feature serves as a central repository of games, and instead of looking for the shortcuts in the menu or the links on the desktop, everything is conveniently located in one organized place.
