Windows 7 pre-beta on the ASUS Eee PC 1000H, MSI Wind, and HP Mini-Note
While you’ve seen us install the pre-beta build of Windows 7 on a Lenovo IdeaPad S10 netbook, other adventurous folks out there have decided to try out the new OS on their respective netbook systems.
Joanna Stern of LaptopMag installed Windows 7 on her ASUS Eee PC 1000H netbook and had this to say about the system.
“So how is Windows 7 on an Intel Atom netbook? Two thumbs up for the new wireless manager and the new visual cues that are incorporated throughout the OS. We wouldn’t give up Windows XP just yet considering the video playback, but the OS is still in beta and it is our hope that final version will be even better for Atom-based PCs.”
Liliputing posted up their impressions of running Windows 7 on an MSI Wind netbook system here. Here’s what they had to say about the new OS:
“All in all, Windows 7 is even more enjoyable than Vista was, and it’s not going to be disappearing from my Wind any time soon.”
Another adventurous fella posted up a view clip of Windows 7 on the MSI Wind on YouTube:
He had this to say:
“Anyways, it runs ok (it’s still in Beta), but if you have a Wind, just stick with XP or Vista for now.”
Finally, the folks at the HP Mini Guide.com installed the M3 build on the HP Mini-Note netbook and said the following:
“Overall it does seem a bit faster than Vista and things are looking really good for this pre-beta.”
All very positive results thus far. Add in a few more features, clean up some bugs, and Windows 7 could definitely be a winner.
