(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); We’ve talked quite abit about Windows 8 recently simply because – Vista was horrible, Windows 7 much better but still not quite there, we’re hoping Windows 8 will live up to our expectations and this video below does show us one feature we want to see improved, check out Windows 8 officially boot up in this demo video in under ten seconds…



Microsoft achieves this quick boot by writing the kernel sessions to disk, essentially putting the computer in hibernation mode rather than shutting it down completely. This improves boot time by 30-70% since the computer doesn’t have to load all the drivers and services every time.

Windows xp was best for its programing but Windows 7 is best for the looks. They should make a version for those 2 combined. Functions of xp but looks of windows 7. I would totally BUY it instead of downloading it xD

I feel the same way. Love XP for the actual OS, but I like 7 for the looks. That's why I have a dual-boot Happy I have XP and Windows 7 on the same computer and can switch between them at any time. Currently been using XP a lot.

Can ANY computer dualboot, or does there need to be specifications. I want to do that Happy

Not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure you can. You just have to make sure your computer would run 7 (& XP) fine by themselves, and if they could, dual-booting wouldn't be much different then that. You do have to have some space on your HDD though.
