My first impression of 7068

I love it!

Somethings that really makes me happy is that the drivers for my wireless adapter were already built into the OS so Windows loaded up with the internet right away!

It also feels much more responsive and stable than all previous builds.

All I have to say is well done Microsoft!

I keep on saying this, but mannn is this my favorite build. Like, I'm honestly beginning to feel some of that RC polish here. And I didn't even do a clean install, I simply upgraded, yet the speed gains were immediately apparent. It also fixed some slowness I had with my "all programs" on the start bar sometimes taking forever + 1.2 seconds to load. So far, everything is perfect. They darkened the logon screen during the install, but haven't done it yet for the actual OS yet apparently, so I expect that in the following builds. Graphics performance seems to have notably improved. I assume they are starting to remove some of the diagnostics codes from previous builds, because man, I'm loving this speed.

I *did* do a clean install to see what kinds of things I had b0rked - but also to see if I still needed to perform my fix from http://www.sevenforums.com/performance-maintenance/342-show-us-your-wei-16.html#post12925

And I don't!!! They've got a lot of things figured out in this new build, ***including*** native drivers for the nVidia nForce 7 chipset-based motherboards.
