What to look out for in Windows 7?

Windows 7 has been specifically coded to support older applications. Before its release, Microsoft assured users that Windows 7 was created to support almost every piece of software that ran on Windows XP. In case some app doesn’t work out of the box, Windows 7 features a special XP Mode that simulates a Windows XP environment for applications that won’t start normally. 

Windows 7 is also the first Microsoft operating system to automatically install device drivers, keeping all of your hardware up to date.
