  1. Comparison James Jenkinson

  2. 55 New Features in 7 • Don't need A New PCWindows 7 will become the first major Windows release that doesn't require better hardware than its predecessor. In fact, it might even run on systems that struggle with Vista, especially netbooks.

  3. 55 New Features in 7 One-click Wi-FiA simple click on the wireless network System Tray icon produces a pop-up of available networks, rather than having to delve into the separate View Available Networks option that was found in XP and Vista. A small but worthwhile change.

  4. 5 New Features in Windows 7 Internet Explorer 8Internet Explorer 8 isn't unique to Windows 7, with a beta already available for Vista, but in terms of usability there's no comparison between the two. On Windows 7, it's a revelation: not only does it launch quickly, but the pages render in a flash.

  5. 5 New Features in Windows 7 Wireless USB and Blu-ray write supportUltra Wideband (UWB) and Wireless USB (WUSB) have rather stalled in the blocks, but should the wireless alternatives to USB cables ever take off, Windows 7 will support both. Also included for the first time is native support for burning Blu-ray discs.

  6. 5 New Features in Windows 7 Toggle Windows featuresSwitching off unwanted Windows features used to involve an uninstall. Now, such features can be simply toggled on and off, with the files remaining on the hard disk should you decide to use them later.

  7. 5 Features of Windows Vista Start Menu Search In Windows Vista, the Start Menu has undergone some significant changes. One of the chief additions is a Search box, where users may begin typing immediately. The contents of the Start menu itself are indexed and searchable, besides the global search index. If indexing is turned on, the search box returns results on-the-fly as users type into it. This allows launching applications in general more quickly than navigating to the shortcut through cascading menus.

  8. 5 Features of Windows Vista File Operations When moving or copying files, Windows Explorer displays the full source and destination path, size and number of items and the transfer speed in megabytes per second (MB/s). If a conflict or error is encountered, it does not terminate the copy, move or delete operation. Rather, the file is skipped and the rest of the files processed

  9. 5Features Of Windows Vista Windows AERO Premium editions of Windows Vista include a redesigned user interface and visual style, named Windows Aero (Authentic, Energetic, Reflective and Open). Aero is intended to be cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing than previous Windows versions, including glass-like transparencies, window animations and eye candy.

  10. 5Features Of Windows Vista Internet Explorer 7 Windows Vista includes the seventh version of Internet Explorer, which adds support for tabbed browsing, Atom, RSS, internationalized domain names, a search box, a phishing filter, an anti-spoofing URL engine, fine-grained control over ActiveX add-ons, thumbnails of all open tabs in a single window (called Quick Tabs), page zoom, and tab groups.

  11. 5Features Of Windows Vista Power Configuration Windows Vista allows fine-grained control over power settings such as setting the power saving mode for wireless adapters, USB selective suspend, PCI Express link state power management, processor state etc and also allows configuring power settings for specific scenarios such as while sharing media files, giving a presentation, adaptive display mode and while indexing files.

  12. 2 Cons of Windows 7 Quicklaunch Bar is gone The quicklaunch bar that is located next to the start button is a handy area to store shortcuts to programs and applications that may be stored in folders. This bar effectively eliminates desktop clutter. Windows 7 does not have this bar

  13. 2 Cons of Windows 7 Windows 7 new task bar (Superbar) The Windows 7 superbar is horrible, it has oversized icons which leads to having less space to fit them on before they stack on each other

  14. 2 Cons of Windows Vista Vista Compatibility Unfortunately Windows Vista does not support alot of the hardware that windows XP supports, alot of people may need new hardware just so vista can use it, this may end up costing more than just the OS price.

  15. 2 Cons of Windows Vista Windows AERO Power Windows AERO, the new graphical interface in Windows Vista certainly looks good, but it chews up laptop battery like nothing else. Some laptops may not even last more than 2 hours on its internal battery

  16. Which One is Better? When the beta for Windows 7 was released there was a celebration from MS users worldwide, this being because those who were frustrated with Vista now saw that Windows 7 fixed everything. The truth is, these people don’t recognise that Windows 7 essentially is Windows Vista just with a new start button, personalisation page and taskbar. Why pay hundreds of dollars to upgrade to something that essentially is the same as what you already have. If you have Vista don’t bother paying to upgrade

  17. Thank you for listening to my PowerPoint comparing Windows Vista and Windows 7
