One big change is in the installation of 7137. It gives you the specifics of copying files ( xxx of 216mb) and gathering files 113,404 of 199,244 for instance. No big deal, but a big change.
It did that with me in the upgrade to 7000 from Vista.

What made you think that the Release Candidtate would not be representative of RTM? If you are not that impressed, buy a Mac.

Well honestly I was expecting some type of visual change sort of like the development of windows vista. It's technically been the same since build 6936. And also sorry i don't only have positive things to say about windows 7 sure it's an improvement but there are things that i'd also like to see and if me saying that is some kind of treason maybe i will get a mac :).

Well, it's a Release Candidate, so of course there won't be big changes anymore besides squishing bugs.

Still interesting to see that they already started working on sp1 with 7138, on a different branch, too (winmain-sp1).

Probably MS will release WIN7 as SP1, like they did to Win2008 server

What sense does that make? The reason they did it with 2008 was to synchronize it with Vista as it is the same OS and shares updates and service packs.

How does that apply to Windows 7?

The reason that they released Windows Server 2008 as SP1, was that it was built on the same core as Vista, which had got SP1 at that time. Win7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 builds on the same core, though no one of them has a SP1 released yet (as they are both in RC stage), thus I don't think they'll release Win7 as SP1.

I don't know, it's just a guess...??

Also they are working in parallel with server 2008 R2, maybe a sync between both?

Anyone know the current status/build of Server 2008 R2?

It's a pretty silly guess. Afaik:

Server 2008 R2 and Win 7 use the same codebase.

Server 2008 and Vista SP1 use the same codebase.

Where are you getting the "new" SP1 from?

They released Win2008 w/ SP1 because it was Vista SP1 with added server functionality, not a separate OS as was the case with Win2003.

Win2008 R2 again isn't Win2008, but Win7 with added server functionality (just like XP 64 wasn't XP, but Win2003 without server functionality).

With Win7 it wouldn't make sense to release it as SP1 right away.

Doesn't anyone remember an article stating that windows 7 sp1 would be released somewhere around the release of the rtm?..

    • Zen Browser 1.21.4b

      By Copernic · Posted

      Zen Browser 1.21.4b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21.4b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 152.0.2 and 152.0.3 Added 'Edit pinned tab' context menu item to manually set a pinned tab's URL Added 'Add Route for Domain' context menu item to quickly add a tab's domain to the Space Routing settings Fixes Prevent sidebar from flickering when moving a tab (#14131) Full-screening while on a glance tab will now expand the glance tab to a normal tab (#11766) Fixed space routing tabs opening in background when it should be in foreground (#14183) Other minor bug fixes and improvements.

    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      I was using searxng for about a year , self hosted, but results were starting to timeout and eventually it became unusable so I switched to degoog. Much better for my needs, more polished and add-ons like maps and calculations etc

    • Laptop Processor Question

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
