Let's write a windows 7 review for TDF.

desiibond · 28-08-2009, 10:17 AM

Hey guys,

One thing that I observed is the lack of proper review in TDF on windows 7.

I am thinking of diving the review into several parts:

1) Installation, shutdown and bootup times
2) Aero and themes
3) Multimedia
4) Networking
5) Security
6) gaming
7) application compatibility
8) Speed/stability
9) Final words.

now, I would like to see active participation by fellow members. Please pick the part that you are most familiar with, we can finalize on who-does-what.

If this is successful, we can go ahead and do similar group reviews for many other softwares like Ubunbu, openoffice and many other free/paid applications.

What do you guys say? Anyone interested?

I'm interested in writing the gaming part. Been playing games on Windows 7 for like 6 months now.

^ And how has your experience been about gaming on W7 ... better than Vista?

desiibond · 28-08-2009, 08:43 PM

I am picking these:

Installation, shutdown and bootup times
Multimedia

I would like to see everyone who voluteers here to note their bootup/shutdown times and put the same in this thread along with their config. This way we find how much differfence h/w can make.

PS: am expecting more replies

Okay, first of all, bump!

I am on Win7 x64 now. Anywhere I can help out? I am more than willing to write out a detailed review on any part of W7. Please tell me what to test and I will do that.

PS : I might even OC on W7.

Installation, shutdown and bootup times
Multimedia
Gaming
application compatiblity are taken.
you can pick what you want from the rest

And we can start the review once the final retail version is out in the market

**Krow** · 18-10-2009, 12:48 PM

Okay. Speed/stability is mine then. I will help out with contributions in the taken ones too. Also, I think networking is something we all will have to do together, as each uses a different type of network/internet connection.
