Its not so bad. I got it on my laptop. all of the major icons are on the bottom of the screen (super bar). I pretty much use those and its nice, and it lets you open multiple pages based on the icons on that bar, when you drag your mouse and click on it.
its easy to use for your common tasks and other similar lists that you do.

Actually not true! I got my brother to do an MCSE a few years ago, even paid for it. He never got a job in the field and now calls me to get instructions to connect 2 computers together. So much for investing in people’s futures.

^ Tofi, I’d contend that he didn’t get “into” IT… I was talking about people who start working in IT related jobs… like Monk, you, me etc. - we might change jobs, industries, and in some cases, the profession as well, but once you’re an IT person, you always tend to assume some type of IT role wherever you go, even if it’s an informal one.

In early reviews, geeks raved about Windows 7. But if you’re an ordinary mortal, learning what this new system is all about will be challenging. Fear not: David Pogue’s Windows 7: The Missing Manual comes to the rescue. Like its predecessors, this book illuminates its subject with reader-friendly insight, plenty of wit, and hardnosed objectivity for beginners as well as veteran PC users.
Windows 7 fixes many of Vista’s most painful shortcomings. It’s speedier, has fewer intrusive and nagging screens, and is more compatible with peripherals. Plus, Windows 7 introduces a slew of new features, including better organization tools, easier WiFi connections and home networking setup, and even touchscreen computing for those lucky enough to own the latest hardware.
With this book, you’ll learn how to:
Navigate the desktop, including the fast and powerful search function
Take advantage of Window’s apps and gadgets, and tap into 40 free programs
Breeze the Web with Internet Explorer 8, and learn the email, chat, and videoconferencing programs
Record TV and radio, display photos, play music, and record any of these to DVD using the Media Center
Use your printer, fax, laptop, tablet PC, or smartphone with Windows 7
Beef up your system and back up your files
Collaborate and share documents and other files by setting up a workgroup network
