Windows 7

I'm using Windows 7 more and more now and thank fuck it is so much better than Vista. I'm even going to go out on a limb and say I like it.
I've been running it on a netbook (since some apps need an upgrade before they'll run on Windows 7 and I dont want to buy the latest bug ridden Simply Accounting) and it's not bad at all.
I have found that removing Aero themes and stopping any unnecessary services takes about 15 seconds off the boot time. So I now boot in 45 seconds to a logon screen. Although i think I'll reenable Aero since it is kinda nice. If I want fast booting I can always use Ubuntu.

Urs is a Mac but I'm a PC and Windows 7 was some one elses idea.
