Windows 7 Startup

Windows 7 can be titled as the "Best OS."
Its going to erase the blot that Vista left. With all the rumors going in the environment I was quite skeptical when I got the RTM CD and slipped it into the optical drive of my tow year old Compaq V3000. Its robustness, speed and overall look is amazing. In fact Windows 7 provides better GUI in comparision with Vista, hence we can say it is an evolution of Vista. Microsoft has listened to its customers and tweaked every portion of the OS that needed to be optimized with the result that, for the first time in its history, it has an OS that is widely deployable without having to wait for the first service pack.

Window 7 boots, shuts down and resumes faster than Vista did. Unlike its predecessor, the OS comes pre-tuned and it runs only what’s needed making it a svelte OS that can run in memory configurations comparable to XP while providing a modern GUI and all the additional features that Microsoft had added in Vista and then some. If you want to migrate from Vista to Windows 7, then the earlier driver will be compatible. The next thing is Compatibility Mode, suppose if you are not able to run any earlier program due to loss of compatibility then don't be hopeless. You can run that program from Compatibility Mode.

One of the major concern today is regarding security of our data. In this field Windows 7 has brought some innovative tools like:

BitLocker : It caps your data from hackers or theft.

How can you help protect your data from loss, theft, or hackers? The answer: BitLocker. BitLocker keep a security lock on your documents, it keep everything in encrypted form on external drive . You are even safe if you have misplaced your portable storage devices like USB flash drives and external drives.

Direct Access: In the corporate world lots of energy is spend on building Virtual private networks, now Windows 7 brings the Direct Access to save your time and energy. It commits secure connection to remote client without dealing with VPNs. This is an quite innovative gift to mobile user and sufficient reason for switching to Windows 7.

AppLocker: Now corporate has a good management over their software. It will inhibit any unauthorized access to any program. Ordinary users will not be able to install new programs however they can run it. It organization can keep a track on their user if they are involved in malpractice such as playing with settings designed for Internet Explorer. AppLocker addresses this problem and lets IT centrally configure who can run which application. AppLocker checks each program against corporate policies when a user tries to start it. Though it can be difficult to implement in a large organization, IT can get some immediate benefits by rolling AppLocker out to highly managed workstations.

Thus we can see Windows 7 will bring harmony and peace of mind for both personal user and business user.
