1. Step 1

   Over 8 million people tested Windows 7 when it was in development and you are still running the Windows 7 Release Candidate which will got expire in March 2010. You might have been running the RC in a production setup because of how reliable and fine the software is, especially for a pre-release product.

2. Step 2

   The first thing you should understand as a tester of pre-release software, means its pre-release and Microsoft is in no way responsible for anything that can happen running the software in a production environment. Yes, the software is very fine, especially since the first beta released back in January, but there are a few things users must know before using it and what happens when the software is going to expire. Here is a little of information from Microsoft about the Windows 7 Upgrade path policies.

3. Step 3

   Upgrades to Windows 7, some operating system are not supported due to low configuration of system. For Windows 7 Upgrade, the following operating systems are not supported:
   
   Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows XP, Windows Vista® RTM, Windows Vista Starter, Windows 7 M3, Windows 7 Beta, Windows 7 RC, or Windows 7 IDS, Windows NT® Server 4.0, Windows 2000 Server. Windows Server® 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2, Cross-architecture in-place upgrades are not supported. Cross-language in-place upgrades are not supported. Cross-SKU upgrades (for example, Windows 7 N to Windows 7 K) are not supported. Upgrades from Windows Vista to Windows N, Windows K, Windows KN, or Windows E are not supported. Cross-build type in-place upgrades are not supported.

4. Step 4

   In another development, Microsofts business depends on running millions of programs that stretch back decades, supporting many numbers of peripherals, and giving a platform for thousands of competing manufacturers who make everything from handhelds and tablet PCs to many data-centre mainframes. But with luck you will not see too many of these lies, and on the surface, Windows 7 is impressively fine. Windows 7 is a long way from being perfect, and its not an essential migration if youre happy with XP. But nor is there a real reason to avoid it. Windows 7 is simply the best edition of Windows you can get.

5. Step 5

   This one gets all the press, but its really more a product of Aero Peek than anything clever in and of itself. Basically it takes some ideas from the Mac OS X dock like larger icons and application launcher duties place whether the application is open or not, a melding of Windows old Quick Launch Bar into the taskbar proper, and adds in traditional Windows taskbar activity like the viewing of open windows. The default performance is fine, which keeps everything stacked in its respective icon, but the real money is in the combine when taskbar is full view, which can be accessed from the taskbar properties. This brings the profits of verbose item names, that always a big win for Windows over Mac OSs icons-only approach. So, Windows 7 is a better operating system than any other operating systems from the Windows.
