graphical enhancements
This review is based on an official copy of RTM Windows 7 that Microsoft provided to CNET on July 30. Fortunately for Microsoft, Windows 7 is more than just a touch. Is stable, smooth, highly polished graphics and introduces new features and new enhancements in the taskbar now to compete with the famous Mac.Los OSX and safety devices are easier to use and Windows 7 does not require hardware upgrades Vista required. Microsoft has made great efforts to make Windows 7 to be accessible to as many people as possible.
The minimum requirements for the 32 bits include a 1 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM, 16 GB of free hard disk space, and a device for DirectX 9 graphics. Systems 64-bit will require at least a 1 GHz processor, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB of free space on your hard drive, and a device for DirectX 9 graphics.

Features
The first thing to be emphasized is the new taskbar or taskbar. Besides incorporating translucent aero style, the new taskbar is perhaps better than Mac OS X. Offers firmware using large icons. Mouse over one and all windows associated with this program appear in the preview. Jump Lists are another new enhancement to the bar, they make the recently opened documents easier to follow. Right click or drag any program icon to the bar to see a list of files you've recently used in the program. In Internet Explorer, this itself will show you the sites recently visited, although not seem to work with Firefox.Microsoft reinvigorated the Windows Media Player allowing users to flow your media files themselves. All you need are two computers with Windows 7, an Internet connection and a Windows Live account. The search in Windows 7 has been improved. The files were added to the hard disk indexed so quickly that they were already visible in the search in less than 5 segundos.Las features touch screen worked surprisingly well but the hardware sometimes misread some multitouch gestures, and occasionally confused the rotation of an image for example, with the focus of the image. At the end there was little difficulty in implementing the basic set of gestures that Microsoft promotes, and this makes Windows 7 in an excellent position for the future, as computers are increasingly launching multitouch capabilities. Performance
Windows 7 feels faster than Windows XP and Vista, but it is not always is the case, sometimes more slowly. CNET Labs tested four 32-bit operating systems of Windows: Windows 7 RTM (final version), Windows 7 build 7100, Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 and Windows XP SP3, all on a table Mini-tower with HP Insprion530 Core Duo processor Intel.Encontramos RTM Windows 7 was the fastest to go out, and tied with XP encoded songs on iTunes. However, it was slower than XP and Vista to boot, for a little over 1 second, and slower than any of his predecessors in performance with Microsoft Office.Después have used the Windows 7 beta, RC version, and RTM final version now for more than six months combined, we think it feels faster than XP at start some programs, opening the control panel, and dragging the icons, files and folders.
