Newsgroup for Windows 7

Sorry about posting this in the Vista newsgroup but I can't find any
newsgroup dealing with Windows 7, are there any?
I need to ask a couple of questions in regards XP Mode, if there
aren't any newsgroups for Windows 7 what would be the next best place
to ask?

Re: Newsgroup for Windows 7

Until Win7 is officially released, the only support on is on Web forums -
someone else will tell you where, but professionals don't like Web. We
prefer Newsgroups Reader and Win7 NG doesn't exiust yet simply because Win7
is not yet on store shelves!

Whether KMS will created Win7 NG remains to be seen, I am afaraid they're
more inclined towards Web intercae these days and that would be a bad
move....

Re: Newsgroup for Windows 7

Sorry for the typos, here's a clean version:

Until Win7 is officially released, the only Win7 pre-support on is on Web
forums -
someone else will tell you where, but professionals don't like Web. We
prefer Newsgroups Reader, but Win7 NG doesn't exist yet simply because Win7
is not yet on store shelves!

Whether Microsoft will create a Win7 NG remains to be seen, I am afraid
they're
more inclined towards Web intercae these days and that would be a bad
move....

Re: Newsgroup for Windows 7

For reasons best known to Microsoft there are now two web-based forums.

The newer one is
[url]http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7[/url] and
the older, originally for the beta and RC, is
[url]http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/w7itpro/[/url].

So, you've talked to all the professionals about the Web? You know that for
a fact? Seems you are blowing smoke out your ass again. Especially from
someone who has no clue how to change the time on his PC.

What you are afraid of is changing the time on your clock. That scares you
to death. Other technology is way over your head. I am surprised that you
can type.

sorry for the typos? Sure, you don't even know how to change the time on
your clock so spelling and using Spell Check is way over your head. I am
sure you had to have someone help you with the task.

Because it wrecks the flow of conversation.
Why is top-posting bad?

Never listen to a top-poster, they are googlers.
And copy/paste'ers

Re: Newsgroup for Windows 7

I never read a bottom poster, because I usually don't see the stuff at the
bottom. I'm sure not going to scroll for it.

Maybe that is what you are use to. I think you might have been married too
long. How often do you have to shave your wife's back?

Her boyfriend does that.
But, I shave She-Bears feet once a week.
She does chew her own toe-nails.
