Very good product
I installed this on my Macbook Pro using Bootcamp and parallels with no problem at all. I converted to Mac in 2009 and felt it was time to finally switch from XP to Windows 7 for my virtual drive. I think Windows 7 is a much better product all in all.- Speed is greater than XP when running on Mac.- Runs better with Parallels Desktop.- Interface is easier to navigate and more visually pleasing.- Search functions are faster and provide better results than in XP.

Excellent
I really like the speed with which Windows 7 starts up, shuts down, and does everything in between. This is the best Windows OS I've used so far. Installed on a laptop that used to run Vista. What can I say? The differences are so great, there is no comparison. If anyone is still using Vista, I strongly urge them to switch to Windows 7. Go ahead, give it a try. You will not regret it. Like so many people said before: "Windows 7 is what Vista should have been!"

Yet another skeptical convert loving Windows 7
Bought this item as part of a custom built Intel Core i7 Processor i7-920 2.66GHz 8 MB LGA1366 CPU BX80601920 system with OCZ OCZ3P1333LV3GK DDR3 PC3-10666 1333 MHz 3GB Platinum XTC Triple Channel Kits for memory. Snapped right into the case with no problems. Used the (EVGA 141-BL-E757-TR X58 SLI Mainboard) in this build inside the 10-Bay ATX Computer Case with 550W PSU & 9.84-Inch Blue LED Fan.I was ready to hate Windows 7 from the moment it launched. Unfortunately the features adde...

Best Windows yet
The best windows /64 that I have used, for people having problems remember that this version MUST be installed on a clean hard drive partition you can not upgrade from any previous windows, and you must have a computer capable of running the os. I do lot of video editing and format conversion, with xp it would take 1 1/2 hours for a final edit, win7 /64 does it in 45 min. all I can say is get it you won't be sorryDimoutlook

Installed On MacBook Pro
As background, I'm a heavy personal computer user but certainly not a techie. I'm an insurance and real estate broker in Houston, TX. I would rate my technical knowledge as medium.I bought the 64-bit builder pack to install on a new MacBook Pro. Followed the Apple Boot Camp instructions and was up and running in less than an hour. Couldn't have been easier. Love the MacBook Pro but one critical business web site only supports IE Explorer and several others have issues with Safari (pl...

Windows 7 from the Eyes of a Mac-Head
I've used both Windows and Mac OS for many years - Windows solely because I had to at work. Contrary to popular belief, a lot of Mac users aren't blinded by the brilliance of Apple. Most of us are simply practical - we like tools that aid our productivity. To that end, Mac tends to usually work better for me.When I started to use Windows 7 at my new job, I was impressed. I actually enjoyed using it... as I have all along with Mac. It seems stable, quick, MUCH more intuitive. Th...

The Best Windows OS Yet
I bought this and did a clean install on a self-built Core 2 Quad machine. It was running XP previously, and I wasn't entirely happy with the performance - I thought it was kind of clunky and not running up to the machine's potential. Turns out I was right. I'm quite pleased with the ease of installation and the performance of this 64 bit OEM version of Win 7. It is faster, and multi-tasks much better than XP on this machine. I am VERY happy (:

Best Windows Yet and Easy Install
I brought this for my dad as a Christmas present. Buying an OEM version means that it will not include any drivers specific to your system - if you don't know how to load your own drivers or don't want to bother, you should buy the upgrade directly from your system manufacturer (ie Acer, Gateway, Dell, etc.).I wanted to install the x64 version to allow 64 bit versions of software run - and to allow better memory access above 4 gigabytes.The install went very smooth - and ...

A easy way to save a few bucks vs buying this in a retail package
The first DVD that arrived was defective, this was no fault of Amazon, and they took care of it right away with no problems what so ever. As for the second one that arrived, it installed on a three year old 1.6ghz duo core system with 1gb of RAM with no issues at all. It found all the drivers and boosted the performance of that old budget system considerably. This is a much better way to buy a copy of Windows than paying extra for a 'retail' package. You get the same software and if it ends up n...
