I have Windows beta 32 on a test box for 5 days now and it runs great. Fast and solid I had to upgrade some drivers but just selecting the "upgrade driver" when I pressed the button windows went out to the net and found the driver and installed it.

Then everything worked again.
I installed some third party plug ins and they also work.

This is a 5 year old box with a cheep card no working GPU and one gig on memory.

much better than Vista.

I’m running CS4 on win7 ultimate x64 and haven’t seen any real problems. There is a new UI feature in win7 where, if you drag a window’s title bar to the to of the screen, it will maximize the window and that doesn’t work – no real surprise since Adobe doesn’t play by the OS’ UI rules anyway. 😉 —

Working well for me on Windows 7 beta 64. definitely a bit faster than on Vista 32. Athlon 64×2 4200+, Gforce 7300GT, 2 GB.

Just remember that it’s a beta, and that it’s an at-your-own-risk proposition.

I will probably laugh if you come back whining if it mucks up while being used on a production-critical system.

But I won’t post that I’m laughing.

I’ll just laugh here where you can’t hear me, and follow along in the thread with Schadenfreudian glee while you try to get it fixed up so you can crank out a job that’s past deadline.

😉 XD

Why are you assuming that anyone’s using it on a production machine?

The past is prologue, Bob, and in scenarios like this one I’ve NEVER seen it fail as a predictor.

I am in Windows Live Mail. Can you tell me how to turn them off?

Nope. I’m using Thunderbird and just use ctrl+a and then hit delete.
