I checked both stores, cause they are both "good" ones, but newegg was always cheaper for what I wanted, Also, hen I ordered my case it said it would be a week or so to get here, got here in 2 days.
to tiger.
I was wondering if anybody here has used Windows 7 yet? I wanted to know if my computer can take it, and if so, is it faster to use then XP?
So, case you guys forgot, I have an EeePC, with a celeron processor clocked at 900mhz plugged in, and 650mhz when unplugged. I can do an on the fly overclocking to 1ghz with it plugged in, and around 800mhz on battery. Got 1gb of ram, and a 15gb ssd too.
Is it a good idea to use Win7 or not? Anybody have an opinion?

It's a pain in the ass to get installed, but It ran beautifully on my eeepc. Although, they may have come out with an easier installation method by now.
No sig for you.

Damn, guess it doesn't matter anymore. My DVD drive just died. So no burning, or booting.
Also, I was looking at the starter addition, but I guess that is moot.
"Starter is useless. I am using Windows 7 Professional on my Asus Eee PC 900a & have full Aero effects, 5 second start-up, & all the features of a desktop on my netbook. There is absolutely NO reason to have or use the Starter Edition when the regular versions works just fine."
5 sec boot is nice, though I think mine is about 10 right now.

Can't use a drive anyway. You've got to install it in a VM, delete the unnecessary stuff, and then ghost it over. You can install win7 from a flash drive anyway. Just make the drive bootable and copy the files from the iso onto it.
No sig for you.

Was looking at getting the Tiny7 iso.
Looks good, but not sure what is taken out. Might wait till a nice 7 shrinker is made.
