5 things you must know about Windows 7.

| Windows 7 has no killer features
| 
| Windows 7 has no killer features that is so radically different from Vista or 
| even XP. Yes it is very eye candy and supports touch tech, but I don't think 
| that's what gets the work done for you. You should not pay for an OS just to get 
| some nice  looking icons or a nice looking desktop.

Patch Tuesday: Five Critical

,----[ Quote ]
| Four of the bulletins affect all supported versions of Windows, while one 
| bulletin may not involved Vista or Server 2008. Expect a lot of system reboots, 
| as all may require a system restart.
