Upgrading to Windows 7 from Windows XP

Windows XP currently the most popular operating system with Windows 7 quickly catching up. As more and more people are moving from Windows XP to Windows 7, I thought I would spotlight a series of articles that I wrote a little while back. My move from Windows XP to Windows 7 was a 'side-by-side' migration, with two separate systems.

I, be leave it or not, never used Windows Vista on any of my production systems. I ran Windows XP up until Windows 7 was released. I did run Windows 7 Release Candidates on a test system for several months prior to it's release and was very happy with it. I even wrote a series of articles about it too. Here they all are.
