A while back I decided I wanted to try Windows 7 Beta, but since I had Windows Server 2008 installed already, I decided to try Windows Server 2008 R2 instead and just upgrade my existing installation.

So I did an upgrade on my work laptop, a HP Compaq 6910p. The upgrade went without any problems. I have been using the machine every day for about 6 weeks now, and not one bluescreen and I can't remember having any other problems either. The only "problem" I had, is after upgrading, I had to do the same hacks to get bluetooth working again as I did on Server 2008.

Conclusions:

I'm very happy with Windows Server 7 or 2008 R2. Things have only become better since Vista and Server 2008. I must say I don't notice any performance differences, but I hope they will come after a fresh install. I have been using the OS every day in my job as a programmer, and there has been no complications. I think this is the best OS I have ever used.
