    Windows 7 Starter


    Hello All,

    I'm interested in peoples opinion of Windows 7 Starter.

    I'm am undecided as to whether install this or Linux Mint on my fathers PC. Are the requirement lower (and performance better), than Pro?

    He has 2GB RAM and a Celeron processor.

    Pro was terrible, very, very, slow.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hey,can you give me a bit more detailed information about your computer?
    I have Celeron processor too(2.8Ghz) and 2GB RAM and I've installed windows 7 ULTIMATE and it runs pretty fast.

    I'm sure your computer can run more than windows 7 starter.So,if you install windows starter ,than you're gonna have no problems with performance!

    But ,before you start installation, you should consider that Windows 7 starter is VERY limited! You won't be able to:
    1.Use aero theme(just windows basic)
    2.Change windows background,sound scheme,glass colors...
