Windows 7, here I come!

June 24th, 2009 by stuffaboutlife | Filed under Technology.

In about 10 minutes, I’m going to install the Release Candidate for Windows 7. I found an old Dell Dimension 2400 on Craigslist.

* Celeron N 2.4ghz
* 1.0gb RAM
* 40gb IDE HD
* CD-RW/DVD-ROM
* nVidia GeForce 6200 (PCI, 256mb RAM)

It’s by no means a speed demon, but it exceeds the minimum system requirements listed by Microsoft. My goal is to install Windows 7 and use it as an “Average User” would.
