Of course, there are a few things to do before making the switch. First you need to make sure your computer is compatible with Windows 7 – almost all computers that have Vista installed on them can be upgraded, and some that have XP are compatible (although XP systems will need to do a fresh install of Windows 7). You can get the free Windows 7 upgrade advisor from Microsoft which will tell you if your computer hardware and software is compatible with Windows 7

Windows 7 is Microsoft’s latest operating system and is much improved over Windows Vista and XP. It contains features to help make your computer more productive, more secure, and easire to use. For more information on Windows 7, visit the Microsoft Windows 7 info page
