Windows 7 and Other Changes

My (free) Windows 7 upgrade for my new laptop arrived this weekend. It took hours to perform the upgrade, but for the most part it went without much flaw. The only problem is that Mionet only just started to support 64-bit Windows Vista. I wonder how long it’ll take them to support 64-bit Windows 7. iTunes is supposed to have issue with Windows 7, but so far it has been working for me. I haven’t been using Windows 7 for longer than 30 minutes, but so far I like the UI changes. Cleaner and simpler looking.
I somehow happened upon a wikipedia page and learned that Opera is a Norwegian company. I thought that was interesting and it piqued my interest. I installed the latest version and was surprised to see that some of the annoying layout quirks that kept me from using it before were gone. I may have to give Opera browser another try. I use Chrome for surfing and Firefox for development. Opera is a refreshing change.
