3. Lower Hardware Requirements
Vista gained a reputation for making even the beefiest

hardware look ratherordinary. Windows 7, however will
run well on lower end hardware, making the transition
from
Window XP less painful.
Microsoft is even pushing Windo • 7 for etbook . This
could provide a modern replacement for Windows XP,
which has found a new lease of life as the OS of choice on
netbooks supplanting Linux. The downside is
that Windows 7 Starter Edition, as it will be called, will be
limited to only three applications running at the same time.

Windows 7
$. Interface and Desktop
Windows introduces significant changes to the operating system's
user interface, many ofivhich are aimed at improving its experience
on tablet computers and other touchscreen devices. The new user
interface is based on Microsoft's Metro design language, and uses a
Start screen similar to that of Windows Phone as the primary means
of launching applications. The Start screen displays a customizable
array of tiles linking to various apps and desktop programs, some
ofxvluch can display constantly updated information and content
through "live tiles". As a form of multitasking, apps can be snapped
to the side of a screen. Alongside the traditional Control Panel, a new
simplified and touch-optimized settings app known as " PC Settings"
is used for
basic configuration and user settings. It does not include many of the
advanced options still accessible from the normal Control Panel.
