Windows 7 beta

Today I am trying out the windows 7 beta on a few of differnt laptops. I will post more about the actual OS later.

Laptop #1 Dell Precision M65
Intel T2400 1.83GHz, 2GB ram, 80GB HD, 512MB Nvidia Quadro FX 350M
Installation was very fast, but did not find correct graphics card driver. Even after installing correct ones, I still could not get the correct resolution.

Laptop #2 Dell Inspiron Mini 9
Intel Atom 1.6GHz, 1GB ram, 16GB SSD, Intel GM950
Installation was extremely slow, probably because of the solid state drive.

Laptop #3 Asus EEEpc 1000HA
Intel Atom 1.6GHz, 1GB Ram, 160GB HD, Intel GM950
Installed almost as fast as the Dell workstation laptop.
