Windows 7 transfer

First of all I would not use the easy transfer system. I would simply install the old hard drive into my new computer set it as a slave. Then I would just copy files as I needed them. As far as IE is concerned I would import my book marks. I would run all my software from the old hard drive as drive letter D:\ and the Cd-Rom would now be E:\ and if there were any virtual drives they would assume the next availablr drive letter. There would be no need to select which files I would transfer. I hope the file manager utility in Windows 7 can read the old hard drive. Once the old hard Drive was installed it will boot from c:\. So I have not lost any of my files. Worse comes to worse I would use a flash drive. If microsoft should have made it backwards compatable to all of the software unless MS forgot to include the abilty to run software mode in old windows X versions as I have now with XP. I know my method is not what some people want, but my old drive is only 20 gigs. Not much of big drive, bbut then again I have been using it since 2001 and it has gotten me bu so far. The size of a hard drive for me should not have to exceed 60 gigs to satisfy me. I am not sure how many people spend all there time download big DVD movies but I did see recently a laptop by Sony offering a 288 gig drive. My word all the salesforce now spend there free time downloading from porn sites so their wives won't find out, yikes. What has this world come to anyway, and besides MS will release this Version like all others 1 yr early so they can get a market share and use the revenue for Service packs or bug fixes or continous udates that seem to last forever.

Well that is only my opinin, and that and 3.50 will get you a cup of coffee.
Thanks for letting me have my say... PS That is why MS is the biggest target for all the new viruses and now conflicker worm.
