So after waiting a whole week, I finally got myself a copy of Windows 7 (and two gigs of extra RAM). I used the public beta and release candidates so I haven’t seen any big surprises but I’m definitely enjoying the experience. Windows 7 has a bunch of cool features like Jump Lists and progress bars in the taskbar (not sure what they call that exactly). They’re actually unexpectedly easy to work with, so I’ll probably write a tutorial on those within the next week or so.
Speaking of unfulfilled promises, that carve tool article still hasn’t been published. It is of course, my prerogative, to blame the aforementioned delay on preparing my machine for Windows 7. It should be on the site later today, so stay tuned if you’re waiting for that.
