Windows 7 – Invading VAIO P’s across the world!
It looks like Engadget just couldn’t help themselves. They installed Windows 7 on a VAIO P, and included some details about how the install worked, as well as some videos.
- It boots fast! Not that Vista was that bad on the boot front, but we’re pretty happy with this.
- No Aero. That’s to be expected, but the lack of transparency and visual effects makes the OS look quite a bit different than most of the screenshots out there.
- It’s very responsive. To be honest, a lot of that could be from the fact that this is a clean install, minus all the crap Sony loads on. Still, we’re very happy for the start menu to pop open instantly, windows to redraw like God intended… it’s pretty great.
- Browsing is 100% better. Internet Explorer pops open in a flash, and pages load in times nearly on comparison with “real” computers. Also, scrolling is ultra smooth, whereas with Vista it was stuttery all the way down.
- There’s a lot more to explore. We’ve just scratched the surface, but we love what we’ve seen so far.

This looks pretty neat, however I will most likely stick with my Linux.

I bougth an XP SP2 5 years ago and I promised myself it's the lost Windows OS I'll gonna buy, especially after much-hyped Vista was released and showed the world how crappy Microsoft software can be. However, promises are made to be broken?
