    Alienware lovers,

    I have been cursing Vista since I obtained my m9750, but the machine itself is awesome. I have 2MHz CPU with 4Gb Ram and Twin 8700s in SLi.

    I have ordered the upgrade to Win7; any experiences, good or bad, and any tips, pitfalls etc. I should be aware of before I run the upgrade when it arrives next week?

    Thanks in advance,

    Clean.

    Well i see your problem,

    You have a 2MHz CPU which needs addressing, :p

    But yeah man, you will notice a great change with windows 7, the interface, the stability (THE ALT TABBING MAN) its a real pleasure to work with and clean, not a rescource hog either.
