Well, it’s done. I spent the better half of yesterday evening to install Windows 7 on my system. And even though I thoroughly backed up my data, I lost my complete email inbox, since Thunderbird did not want to import the backup file. Sure sucks, but life goes on.

Win7 is, well, different. Feels like a totally new experience in comparison to XP. It will probaby take some time to get used to it, but so far I like it. A few things I do not understand and do not want or like, but XP had that as well. More of it even. If I could just get my surround sound to work properly then I would be happy. But that’s the goal for today. And setup my multiboxing environment.

Yesterday my copy of Windows 7 Premium 64bit arrived, so this evening I will be busy doing final backups of all my stuff and the installing my system from scratch. I hope I don’t forget anything too important. Once that is done I will see how good my machine will handle five instances of World of Warcraft at once. The only doubt I have is my graphics card which doesn’t have that much of ram. But we shall see.

Or not…! There was a technical problem with retrieving my package from the post office. I will have to wait until later today or even tomorrow till I finally hold it in my hands. Meh.

On a sidenote, my five box team is now up and running. Dagarn the Tauren Shaman and Kreizenn the Bloodelf Paladin will make their appearance in this blog as soon as I have my system running again.
