Q&A: Windows 7 Performance On A HP Mini 1000 (1035NR)

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!
