Windows 7 on Tablet = Great!

Windows 7 on P1610

Windows has been so favorable in my sight for the past few days that I have decided to install it on my Fujitsu P1610 Tablet as well, and now I can say they are simply a match. Superbar works great, better tablet input panel (TIP) than Vista, and better still, runs way much faster than Vista. Ever since I went back to XP Tablet edition I mourned of losing all of Vista’s tablet-friendly features, but back then the trade-off on speed was simply too much to bear. Now comes Windows 7, which has all the perks of Vista but runs almost as fast as, if not faster, than XP. Dream come true!

This is what Vista should have been all along. Given the level of favorable opinions out on the street the migration to Windows 7 should be much faster than the one to Vista. And that hasn’t considered Virtual XP on Windows 7 yet.

Given all the positive feedback Windows 7 is getting–relative to Vista at least–I decided I should give it a try. So after a 3GB download and a surprisingly speedy installation, here I am blogging on Windows 7 64-bit RC 1!

So how’s it?
–It feel snappier. Now granted Vista 64-bit wasn’t that bad to start with on my desktop, but the difference with Vista 32-bit is night-and-day. Yes I know, I am comparing apples or oranges here.
–Aero overload. The whole glassy interface is a bit too much even for me, so this surely won’t please someone who appreciate simplicity, such as my ex-girlfriend. Aero peek is a nice feature though–it allows you to see small snapshots of all instances of the same application together.
–Smaller Footprint. A vanilla Vista installation with updates takes 20GB. Windows 7 is only taking 15 so far. Now the Beta was even smaller at ~10GB, but well…
–Better Internet Explorer. Finally it no longer takes ages to open a new tab. That said, Microsoft, as much as I thank you on this, I am still sticking with Firefox.
–Artistic/Silly/Un-Microsoft Wallpapers. Pick your word, but it is a break from scenery photos.

“I know, but it rises out of my soul. For you, and for any dear to you, I would do anything. If my career were of that better kind that there was any opportunity or capacity of sacrifice in it, I would embrace any sacrifice for you and for those dear to you. Try to hold me in your mind, at some quiet times, as ardent and sincere in this one thing.”

毛毛蟲跟蒲公英的故事: 2001-2008

General

從前從前，有一個毛毛蟲跟蒲公英的故事
毛毛蟲和蒲公英是一對戀人
他們承諾彼此要永遠在一起
可是毛毛蟲在蛻變成蝴蝶的過程中丟下了蒲公英一個人
蒲公英寂寞非常，幸好有細心的風願意在旁相伴

蒲公英的寂寞漸化為心淡
她再也忍受不下去無了期的等待
毛毛蟲在蛹裏聽得到她離去的聲音，心裏焦急萬分
他並不怪責蒲公英，只後悔自己為何當初不甘心做毛毛蟲
又遲遲未能破繭而出

蒲公英甫離開毛毛蟲又遇上風
溫暖的風，暖和了蒲公英的心
她決定答應風和他一起去看看更美的世界

毛毛蟲化為蝴蝶
翩然欲飛的蝴蝶雖然期待落空
但心裏還是祝願蒲公英會被風帶到的滋潤的土壤。

又站在你家的門口　我們重復沉默　這樣子單方面的守候　還能多久
終于你開口向我訴說他有多溫柔　我已不在你心中

我真的懂　你不是喜新厭舊　是我沒有　陪在你身邊　當你寂寞時候
別再看著我　說著你愛過　別太傷痛　我不難過　這不算什麼
只是為什麼眼淚會流　我也不懂

回憶很多　你的影子也會充滿我生活
我並不懦弱　你比誰都懂　雖然寂寞　這會是我　最後的寬容

不要再說　或許這是最好結果　現在分手　總好過你不愛我一拖再拖
松開你的手　離開你左右　我向前走　這會是我　真正的解脫

–

謝謝妳。

我當然心知肚明，我刻意表現自己的寬宏到了有點過火的地步。但這就是我任性的方法，而且也是對著妳才會這樣。概是妳離開我，就請妳許我這一點點的任性吧。
