    Default Windows 7

    I really like Windows 7 and was thinking of upgrading my XP notebook to Windows 7. Will I have any problems with running Version 7.5.5?

    Thanks.

    Windows 7 running fine for me. Drivers and all work. Pretty sure that the installer has been updated to recognize Windows 7 as well. If not just run the install in 'Compatibility Mode'.

    Nope, none at all. Been running it since Jan 5 (or close to, whenever public beta was released) and havent had a glitch. Even easier to switch to Windows 7 from Vista than XP to Vista because FTDI hadnt released the x64 bit drivers yet (that was 2 years ago though).

    And how much better than Vista is it exactly? A TON. Period, end of story. Honestly there arent that many GUI changes, just little tweaks here and there plus the new taskbar. But it just works, finally W7 = XP redux + 64 bit support!
