Crippled Windows-7 for Netbooks

February 6, 2009 By Ade Magnaye

This is bad. Liliputing replorts that Windows 7 for netbooks won’t be as functional as we hoped it would be:

Windows 7 Starter edition kind of sucks. Sure, you get the new Windows 7 taskbar and Home Group features. But you can only run up to 3 applications at a time. Sure, it’s tough to see more than 3 windows at a time on a 1024 x 600 pixel netbook display, but if you want to run Skype, Windows Media Player and your web browser all at once, you can’t launch an image viewer, IM application, or anything else at the same time.

What do you think?
