What do you like about windows 7

What's the performance difference? I haven't noticed any difference over Vista in performance, although it's much faster than XP, so was Vista.

Windows Search

Disc at once burning with WMP. (Nice not having to install a 3rd party app. just to burn a continuous CD)

Snipping Tool

And pretty much everything else associated with the OS. Everything just works.(Well...Mostly everything)

I love the new taskbar and having iso burning built in. I also like the image backup feature. I know there are free ones that are better, but I the built in one works just fine for me. I like the snipping tool, the new and improved calculator and ease of connecting to a network. I like the Homegroups feature. It makes connecting all your wireless devices at home a breeze. It is by far the best OS Microsoft has ever released. XP was good, but it is outdated and Windows 7 is the best of XP and Vista combined + some new innovations. Vista introduced a lot of new features and cool stuff on an OS and Windows 7 perfected them(well most of them).

Maximizing a window by dragging it to the top of the screen.
Now, when using machines with an older OS I always try that and then realize that feature didn't exist yet...

Lol that's a true one, I tend to do that when I'm on a computer that has XP or Vista, but luckily at work they have already upgraded to 7.

There's a lot of things members don't like so thought I would redress the balance with this thread.
I like the "snipping tool" very useful, easy
to use and saves a lot of time for someone like me who uses screenshots a lot!

I truly hope that Windows 7 is not used for mission critical applications. Let's see now, 100 games of Hearts played, 39 won that's 38% right ?????
