I also upgraded my Vista machine which has an HP LaserJet printer attached to it – it's probably 7-8 years old but works great. I really held my breath as I couldn't find a driver at the HP site, but then Win 7 asked if it could locate and install a driver, so I said sure- and it found and installed one for it. I was so happy and relieved! I hope others have similar good experiences with it.

New operating systems are almost always an improvement, and will almost always generate some sort of enthusiasm or buzz within the first couple months.

The reality being you need at least 4-6 months under your belt before you can conclude how successful an OS is for you. And that’s the bottom line, how successful is this system to you and your work environment?

Here are my Top 7 reasons why Windows 7 could be a success … and seven reasons it could be a failure:

Thanks again for the great review!
