Windows 7 features

A few years ago we started asking PC owners what they wanted from Windows 7.

Home Group: Takes the headache out of sharing files and printers on a home network.

Jump Lists: Speedy access to your favorite pictures, songs, websites, and documents.

Snap: A quick (and fun!) new way to resize and compare windows on your desktop.

Windows Live Essentials: A suite of great programs in one free download. Like Mail, Movie Maker, Photo Gallery, and more.

Windows Taskbar: Better thumbnail previews, easier-to-see icons, and more ways to customize.

Full 64-bit support: Windows 7 makes the most of powerful 64-bit PCs, the new desktop standard.

Performance improvements: Designed to sleep and resume quicker, be less memory hungry, and spot USB devices faster.
