Thank goodness Windows 7 will have Windows Updates until 2020!

I too have Aero animations disabled, as well as snap and Peek. When I want the system to be super fast, I have one theme saved in Classic Mode which makes the system even faster.

Just curious ICit2lol. Do you earn money using a computer, be it desktop publishing, webmaster, software engineer, IT department etc.? I've been making a living on two different sites using my computers for remote support.

This is an update to my PC Station in 2011. A new desktop build is always fun to do and this desktop PC will probably hold me over for many years to come.

HE meant if if you like 7 as it comes, that has Aero enabled, but you said you don't like Aero. :D
Yep mate I should have been a bit more explicit I really was saying that I can do without all the fancy doo dads not literally as it is installed LOL!!
