Sales guy recons Office 2003 will not install (is not compatable) on WIndows 7...... DAK why.
(One of my GIS packages will not (yet) function under Office 2010, so would prefer to remain with Office 2003)

Was using PC world to have a "touch and feel" when this obnoxious sales guy reconed I needed Office 2010 as Win 7 and Office 2003 are not compatable.
I mentioned that I was under the impression Win 7 ran with everything, that it was a really good stable OS, but he knew differently

Quote from: journeys Thanks Matt, any installation issues?
None whatsoever - CD in, and off we go Didn't even need to set compatibility mode. I smell a sales pitch. Yay FUD!

With regards to printer/scanner, enough time has elapsed for manufacturers to get the drivers up to date so just go to their website and check. Windows 7 is very good at plug and play i.e. it finds the drivers itself. My Epson all-in-one (several years old) worked straight away at the printer end but I put in its own drivers as IIRC it did not display the status monitor.
Don't forget that you will need to download an email client unless you are a webmail user as W7 doesn't have one integral to it. Most folk use Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird.

Hope that you enjoy your laptop - there's nothing like a new one, all shiny, clean and empty of detritus that many of us tend to accumulate.
