Just a very quick thank you to everyone who came out to the Windows 7 party. It was a huge success. We got crazy and discussed solitaire, shaking windows, the super bar, and crazy WiFi tricks.
Special thanks to Matt Kettlewell for taking this pic to document the madness that was the Windows 7 party of 2009!

It’s here! Our Windows 7 party is TONIGHT!! and we would love to see you there. No need to RSVP – we won’t have enough napkins anyway. Just show up with some sort of munchies and be ready to learn about what’s new in Windows 7. Rick Castellini of HelpMeRick.com will also be on hand and we will be doing presentations throughout the night.
Rumor has it we will also be testing the waters to see if there is still a high demand to reconvene the digital photography user group.
So, whether you are signed up or not, we invite you to our Windows 7 party tomorrow night from 6-8pm at the Grand Junction Realty Office.
All of the details you need, can be found here (those words are a link – click on ’em). Feel free to use the form to ask questions if you have any.
I have been using Windows 7 for a few days. So far, I am pleasantly surprised at how snappy it is and how much Microsoft has cleaned up the interface. It is in most ways an improvement, even over Windows XP.
While I enjoy Windows 7, I have to wonder what Microsoft was thinking with the new character wallpapers. I will admit that I don’t hate them – I am a fan of Salvador Dali and similar artists that create disturbing artwork with great detail. Essentially, this is what you get with the new Windows 7 character wallpapers.
Some of the wallpapers seem to be a little Yellow Submarine inspired, others have a Powerpuff Girl’s appearance while a few are seem like they were inspired by nightmares of a 4-year-old after watching a Tim Burton marathon with a Wizard of Oz chaser.
