My Windows 7 thoughts…

I am currently trying to decide what version of Windows 7 I really want to be running.  The logical factors that I am taking into consideration are features and price. 

When I got Windows Vista I got Vista Ultimate 64 & 32 bit and Vista Home Premium 32bit.  This time around I only plan on switching my main machine over to Windows 7.  The real decision maker is whether or not I want the Windows backup features or not.  I keep all of my data on my custom home server so it is basically only user settings and programs that reside on my main machines hard drive.  With that said what do you think I should do?  What version do you plan to buy?

iTunes 9 – Quick Thoughts…

I am always reluctant to go out and download or click ‘yes’ to a popup for any new release to software.  But here I am defying my own rule and upgrading my Home Server and main desktop machine to iTunes 9. 

iTunes Software Update

iTunes Library Update

iTunes Welcome Screen

iTunes Home Screen

I have now finished downloading and upgrading the iTunes Library.  I agree with the full reviews so far… it seems to be more noticeable on your monitor with all the other program windows open.  I like the new look and functionality that has been added.  I look forward to utilizing and trying what is new in the upcoming weeks.

What do you think of the new iTunes 9?
