Well unfortunately I missed out on getting a shot at the beta Windows 7 exam. But in reality, it’s no skin off my nose as I won’t be using or deploying until mid to late 2010 at the earliest; the only benefit of doing now was that it was free, the professional relevance was irrelevant.

Despite that I am still using Windows 7 and won’t be going back to Vista or XP (except at work, an XP environment) at all. I am still learning the ropes of the OS and came across a new resource for learning Windows 7:

A few more bits and bobs there to look into, namely sample chapters of new Windows 7 documentation. The timing couldn’t be better either, with Windows 7 RC1 being officially released on the 5th of May. But I expect all you fellow Windows 7 geeks to already have the leaked version! I’m yet to install mine, but definitely looking forward to the Windows XP inbuilt VM; I will post more on this when I use it a little bit.
