New to the site not to windows forums in general.

I have the full windows 7 thanks to the microsoft action pack program i have deployed it as my main operating system on my pc at home and honsetly it is fantastic. I have no issues playing movies, games or music with it, i even played freelancer without needing compatibility mode!!!!!

With the release candidate or the beta copies to the test i installed and fiddled but never dug into the nitty gritty of it.

anyway I have seen some moaning and groaning about certain games and and feautres not working....most of the issues in the release candidate are fixed now and i'm pretty certain that with updates any other niggling issues will be sorted out.

I am running the full on package Windows 7 Ultimate x64. No antivirus just yet as im still wating for mcafee 2010 to be delivered. altogether the operating system and processes use around 200mb of my RAM. Considering it's like 15gigs that is insanely low!

Alltogether fantastic well done Microsoft.
