Excellent product. Great price.

It works great. I was reluctant to load the 64 bit version and now wish I had. Will probably reload soon, so the software can see all 4 gig of my ram. Otherwise, excellent product.

Compatibility issues

Went from XP Pro to 7 Pro 64. Transition was tedious but resulted in decent function except that an error message about a faulty or missing ntoskrnl.exe file. On research this is a boot-up error. Is avoided by leaving the OS install disk in the CD. Being worked on. Otherwise it is fast and just annoying to have to reinstall or reregister all my software that is not compatible and load new drivers.

Pricer then I expect, but good product.

I had a nasty virus and issues with my 5 (or 6?)year old computer running XP that required a reinstall. Rather than reinstall I figured I would install 7 especially since I heard good things about both 7 and about IE9 (which does not run on XP). I tried Vista and hated it, but I really like 7 it seems much more responsive than XP and I like the look and feel of the interface. Of course the performance gains might not be as great as they occur since after running any Windows operating system for years they all tend to slow to a crawl. It has been a long time since I upgraded a Windows operating system (since I did not want Vista) but everything went smoothly even though no upgrade path from XP to 7 is available. I am disappointed that their are 3 different versions of 7 for sale. In the past upgrades I have done (last one was ME), one version existed at one price. The upgrade price of $199 seems high to me.
