[SBE] HP Printers vs Canon

[Honigs, William S]

I am not having any issues with Windows 7 sharing files..are you using Windows 7 Business version?   

There were originally several different flavors of XP as well..a home version and a Pro version.

Windows 7 won't run some older software that will run on XP unless you spend another $90 to add a Microsoft brand XP emulator.  The Windows Explorer file manager of Windows 7 is dreadful, as is the Windows Live picture editor when run on Windows 7.  Windows 7 Windows Explorer takes forever to generate thumbnails, taking minutes to do what XP does in seconds.  Setting up a Windows 7 machine to share its files over a network is slow and tedious.  I'm strongly considering having my local technician replace 7 with XP.
