   This is an OEM full-version of 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate. It is licensed ONLY to be sold for use with NEW computer equipment (primarily for self-builders). You cannot upgrade an existing Vista computer with this pack unless you completely reformat your hard drive and re-install EVERYTHING. Win 7 has been reviewed in other areas, and I gave it four stars in a full review, but wanted to warn customers about being SURE they are purchasing what they expect with this edition.

   I purchased this version of windows 7 to load into VM Fusion to run on my MacBook Pro. The installation was flawless and it has met all of my expectations. I am able to access and run all of the programs I used that require a windows OS.

   I’m a technology geek, but I’m also careful with my upgrades. Admittedly, I do have a very powerful custom-built computer, but I was very surprised at how much faster and more reliable Windows 7 was over Vista 64 Bit.

   I principally use my rig for gaming and videos / photos, but I occasionally use my rig to build software for my freelance clients (I’m currently unemployed though, so if anyone needs a .Net Web Developer in Co Springs, please get in touch!). The hassle of creating hardware profiles is now long gone and I have been delighted with the free virtual machine included with this version that provides a virtual windows XP mode that allows me to run IIS and other web development related software, without having their services drain my PC’s resources when not in use. I can now just close down the VM, free the resources and get back to a high-speed rig for gaming!

   File transfers are now much faster and the overall feeling is an almost-instant response with just about all the features. I rarely get bugged by the User Account Control and even when it does ask for permission, I am glad that it works this way as there are stacks of security dangers these days.

   Games are much faster than Vista 64 Bit and so far, I have not found a game that refuses to work. I am an avid collector of games and many of them are very old, but they all seem to work perfectly well.

   I hope that Microsoft doesn’t bloat this OS too much in the future with updates, it runs exactly the way I want right now and I am very pleased with it.

   I bought Windows 7 to install it on my MBP using Bootcamp….since I’ve installed it I’ve only used OS X a couple of times (that was more than 2 months ago)….LOVE WIN 7!

   A must have if you are a windows OS user. Get the ultimate version, you will not be disappointed. I plan on telling everyone I know who uses windows. Also, gamers, you can play virtual any game with this OS, so it’s time to make the move from XP.
