PCs are an integral part of the daily lives of billions of people around the world. They are used for more functions than anyone could have imagined just a few years ago, and as PCs become more deeply woven into our everyday lives, our expectations keep increasing.

With Windows 7, you told us what you expect from a PC. And we listened. In Windows 7 we’ve developed hundreds of little improvements and a few big ones that add up, frankly, to a whole lot less. Less waiting, less clicks, less hassle connecting to devices, less power consumed and less overall complexity. And with less of what you don’t need, your PC running Windows 7 will help you do more by making everyday tasks simpler and easier.

We’ve made it easier to add PCs to your home network, share fi les between networked PCs, and use and manage other connected devices like cell phones, cameras, and MP3 players. Even browsing the Internet is easier thanks to improvements in Windows Internet Explorer 8.

You asked for improvements in the basic fundamentals like performance, responsiveness, safety, reliability, and compatibility. We designed Windows 7 to start up, shut down, and resume from sleep quickly so you don’t have to wait as long to get stuff done. Even better, you’ll fi nd innovative ways to safeguard your personal data—all while getting more ways to personalize your PC and make it truly your own.

With Windows 7, we’ve also made new things possible. You’ll fi nd fresh ways to enjoy and share your music, photos, video, and recorded TV when and where you want regardless of how or where it’s stored. Windows 7 gives you more ways to access your data and work productively from any location including making it easier to connect to wireless networks. In the enterprise, the role of the PC is evolving just as quickly as it is in the home. With Windows 7, IT professionals have more ways to help their people get more done—more securely and from more locations while still maintaining control over increasingly complex computing environments.
