How many upgrades did Windows 7 give?

Recently, the Windows 7 system that everyone is expecting is finally released in the Chinese market. This operating system, which is more gorgeous than XP and smaller than Vista, has been called the most important product in more than ten years. It has attracted countless attention before it was officially launched. Unlike the previous Vista system, Windows 7 has received a lot of praise during the trial phase, and Microsoft's low-cost strategy has made Windows 7 highly sought after. The external evaluation of Windows 7 is so high that many people are eager to try. However, for those who are not fashionable and used to XP, how much does Windows 7 give us a reason to upgrade?

Reason 1

Orange gorgeous operation is simple

Windows 7 gives many users the most intuitive feeling is gorgeous and fresh interface design, from XP to Windows 7, ten years Polishing is not in vain.

Windows 7 continues the style of the Vista system and has made even more revolutionary changes. Windows 7 eliminates the traditional system tray and quick boot area, and the theme is more attractive than the transparency effect of Windows Vista. The most important point is that Windows7 does not require high graphics cards. Even integrated graphics can turn on Aero effects by default. The start menu and taskbar are translucent, which Vista can't match.

Aero Peek is a new application added to Windows 7, with two main functions, one is the taskbar thumbnail, Vista also has this feature, but Windows 7 is even better. Windows 7 can categorize the same series of windows, such as a computer and a local disk that belong to the Explorer series, which are displayed together when the taskbar previews the window.

And Aero Peek's other window temporary preview function is also very intimate. When there are many windows on the desktop, you don't need to point all the windows, move the mouse to the corresponding window of the taskbar. Yes, the system will automatically put this window at the front end, while other windows will only display a translucent frame, saving users a lot of time.

Reason 2

Successful "Slimming" runs more smoothly

One of the most important reasons for Windows 7 being praised is that it has less space than the Vista system. Nearly half, the memory required to run multiple windows is no longer in line with the size and quantity. Windows 7 Windows Desktop Manager Version 1.1 (Windows Desktop v1.1) allows each application to use only half the amount of memory in Vista, leaving more room for the user's computer and running longer.

At the same time, compared to Vista, Windows 7 requires a lower configuration and runs faster, which is beyond Vista. Despite building on the same code as Vista, Windows 7 starts a few seconds faster than Vista because it loads drivers in parallel.

In addition, Windows 7 has an improvement, that is, battery life, will be 11% higher than Vista, which is undoubtedly good news for notebook users, but also conducive to environmental protection and energy saving.

Reason 3

Highly compatible hardware compatibility

Vista system is one of the main reasons for its low compatibility when it is released. Therefore, Microsoft naturally took this profound lesson, lowered its position, and strengthened cooperation with hardware manufacturers and program developers, which made Windows 7 gain praise when it was first launched due to its good compatibility.

And, the Professional and Ulimate versions of Windows 7 also offer Med-V and XP modes for extreme compatibility issues.

Windows 7 can be said to be not lost in XP. However, this is not to say that Vista is just a transitional system. In fact, Vista has progressed very well after two or three years of upgrades, and there is no longer a compatibility issue.

Those who are interested in upgrading the system to Windows 7, but have already used XP and Vista, may wish to wait for a while, win7 is just just officially released, still need some time to improve and upgrade.

Reason 4

Let's go down the price strategy

In fact, for the average user, when choosing the operating system, the price is still the most important factor. The interface is not beautiful, and it is used to it for a long time; the boot time is long, the running speed is slow, and the patience point is endured, and the high price of the genuine operating system is the real reason why many people are discouraged from it.

This time, Microsoft really grasped the psychology of consumers, and went directly to the people-friendly route in terms of price, so that people had to love Windows 7.

For the first time, Microsoft broke the iron law of global unified pricing and adopted a low-price strategy in China. Windows 7 Home Edition is priced at 399 yuan, home premium version is priced at 699 yuan, professional version is priced at 1399 yuan, and the flagship version is priced at 2,460 yuan. In contrast, the premium version of the home sold in the US market is 199.99 US dollars (about 1365 yuan), the professional version is 299.99 US dollars (about 2048 yuan), the flagship version is 319.99 US dollars (about 2185 yuan).

In addition to benefiting the market, such a popular price will help solve the piracy problem that has been plaguing Microsoft. I hope that some extreme measures such as XP's black screen will no longer be staged.
