In this video, I get another question regarding Windows 7 on my HP Mini 1000. Coheed, a regular member of our chat room, writes: "I'd like to see you do a followup on your 1050NR Review. Something that shows how Windows 7 is running now, and if you'd choose to go back to Windows XP." Since I don't have a lot of heavy software on the HP Mini, I simply demonstrate various multitasking efforts with the browsers I have installed. I open a few tabs in Google Chrome and Firefox and play some videos on Youtube and Hulu. I also launch some Adobe Air applications like Twhirl. The 2GB of memory I installed on the HP Mini really helps with multitasking, but not necessarily with speed. I'm satisfied with Windows 7 as it is since everything I want to do on the HP Mini works. I don't foresee myself going back to Windows XP until the Windows 7 beta expires in August. I hope this answers your question, Coheed. If you have any questions about the HP Mini or any other topic, send an email to help@bwana.tv. Enjoy!

  • People,Please stop asking questions which tend towards comparing the netbook line with laptops. Its like this, If you had to prune a banzai tree, would you use a tractor (desktop), a lawn mower(laptop) or a pair of scissors(Netbook), then, will you ask if the scissors can be used to trim the lawn? ITS A NETBOOK.... netbooks are an excellet line of products but ignorance and poor marketing like what I just saw here will kill it if we are not careful

  • Yes, I think you are drunk.  Thanks for watching!

  • to install windows 7 do u put it on a external hdd?

  • after i watch the video in this video i type at youtube search "mark wahlberg talks to animals"

  • do you upgrade the windows or you already have windows 7 ultimate

  • I have HP mini 311 and the specs are the same as far as I know and I run 1080 off Youtube flawlessly. Mine had a default of like 67 programs running on startup!

  • whatttt video editor do you use on this lapttop cuz i have it and cant use the movie makers i download

  • @iobuffa Jazz hands. Nice one hehe. love your videos ^^

  • @juandsi I don't think a 15GB HDD would be enough for regular Windows 7, but you'd have no problem installing Tiny7 on there.

  • I have a hp mini 1000, n it came with xp n a 15 GB hdd, will i b able tp put windows 7 on it? if not does anyone know how could i upgrade its hard drive?

  • how much hard drive space do i need to install it?

  • I found out that if you already have an operating system installed, and want to install Windows 7 to another partition, boot into your operating system, extract the setup file to your current partition, run it, and you'll be on your way. No need to burn a DVD or mess with a USB flash drive :)

  • I think I 'bout died laughing when you tried to load the HD video! Great vids!
