Our Windows 7 Launch Party’s Over
The Windows 7 launch celebration went well at our place. I installed the “Windows 7 Signature Edition” on an older (Win 95 era) Dell machine and discovered that the new OS ran quite well. Even more surprising, Dell’s audio and video drivers for Windows 2000 worked great.
Because I set English (Canada) as the system language, we got the Canada background themes. I used the HD TV as a monitor and had the beautiful backgrounds rotating throughout. Does anyone know how to find the location those pictures were taken? Some are in the Rockies, but from which pass?
A couple guests put together the Windows 7 Party Pack puzzle - with able assistance from my great-nephew Noah, as shown in the following picture.
Even the dogs (Goldie and Riley) had a good time at the party. Here’s my dog Goldie getting an ear scratch from our neighbour.
My wife bought the balloons and wrote “Windows 7” on them – strangely, the Party Pack didn’t include balloons.
The guests left our afternoon tea party with Windows 7 bags. Brenda won the deck of playing cards.
All-in-all a successful launch party!
