Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC)

Just installed it on my old Macbook Pro using Parallel's virtualization. I think it is my old Macbook Pro's memory. Not enough to run OS X and Windows 7 side by side. Things are a bit slower. O well, I have free use of this Windows 7 RC for a year so why not. Plus when I run Windows, I don't do anything on OS X anyway. One interesting thing, I cannot extend the harddrive space. It is fixed at 32G. Maybe not so free. But my first Windows 7 Beta, I could do that.

I am exploring some of the settings to customize resolution, and other related Display settings. Wow... So complex... Makes XP looks simplier and of course, no comparison with the OS X's nicest user interface. Apparently, Microsoft did not consult any outside consultation on user interface. Umm.... More reports later.
