Microsoft has announced that it will allow users to download Windows 7 from their online store and then onto a USB key. This will allow netbook users to install Windows 7 without the need for an external CD-ROM drive. The offer is only available through the Microsoft Store. Another positive note is that there will not be a separate edition of Windows 7 for netbooks (Windows 7 Starter). Microsoft has decided to let users and manufactures install whatever version of Windows 7 they wish. Link: http://store.microsoft.com/win7netbooks |
