Before you upgrade think twice

As I said, that was my experience. OS moja inaweza kufanya kazi namna tofauti depending on hardware, RAM na hata internet connection speed. My thing is my hardware is certified for Windows 7 and actually the machine came with it, but you would think it was some bootleg install.

I don't use Microsoft Office anymore, it is vendor specific and does not provide the interoperability needed by a power user.I'm into OpenOffice where I can create files that can be opened by my friends in the MS Windows world as well as the Linux/ UNIX geeks.

See the thing that everybody needs to understand is, different users have different needs, and in your case for example, you may not need the interoperability because all your friends and family are using windows.Your IT skills may not be adequate to use Linux and far from being an enhancement, Linux will actually daunt you and prove counterproductive.

Kwa hiyo hii habari ya "this is best" au "that is best" is largely subjective and must be followed by "best for what?"

Ms Windows is best for ease of use and most people are familiar with it, but horrible when it comes to security.

Something like Ubuntu is robust and secure, but the user interface takes some learning, and you may end up going into the terminal to do quite a few sudo apt-get by command line, although it is now streamlined to dumb down the installation and interface to the extent that the installation is better than windows and the interface is almost as easy.

Despite the specification detailed above, you cannot argue that you will have security concerns with Ubuntu as you have with that Swiss cheese like holed Windows.

what are the magic of Ofiice 2010 for limited comparison with Office 2007 or 2003. Kama alivyosema Kiranga unaweza kuwa na features fulani ambazo hata hazitumiki sana. Kwangu kama mtu anafanya kazi vizuri na Offfice 2003 kwa nini asiendelee nayo> mtu anahamia kwenye 2007 thena anakutana na interface tofauti. ule muda wa ku cope na new layout ya interface unampunguzia utendaji.

Kitu kimoja ambacho naweza kukubaliana hapa! Kwanza lazima ujue unachohitaji! Before I upgrade to new version I always learn what is new in the newer version! Mfano one of my favourate feature in windows 7 is the snipping tool, ukiachilia mbali the double windows, stalking, aero-shake, easy searching, etc! I probably fancy the snipping tool because because it has been a huge help in my daily activities!

I found office 2010 a best thing in making Pro Power Point Presentation, starting with illustartion, animation etc. I only the say this because they have been a huge favor to the work I do!

Ullimwengu tuliopo ni wa sayansi na Teknolojia.Kila kukicha teknolojia mpya ya kufanya mambo, kutengeneza bidhaa inagunduliwa na kuanzishwa.

Uwepo teknolojia na misamiati ukichanganya na ubunifu wa wataalmu wa marketing kwenye makampuni unawaacha watumiaji wakiwa hawana cha kufanya na kujikuta wakihamasika kufuata teknolojia fulani bila kuwa na mwanga ni kitu gani hasa wamenunua.

Nitajikita zaidi kwenye teknolojia za IT
Mfano Microsoft walitoa Desktop OS ya XP. Then wakaja na Vista. Na sasa wako na Window 7.

Katika Matangaoz sasa hivi inakuwa promoted Windows 7. Je mtumiaji ana haja ya kuharakisha kwenda kwenye Window 7? Je Mtumiaji alikuwa ana haja ya kubadilisha kutoka XP kwenda Vista bila kujiridhisha.

Binafsi Nashauri watumiaji wanataka kufanya upgrade ya OS wazingatie haya.

Usifanye upgrade ya kutoka OS kwenda nyingine kabla OS mpya haijamaliza japo hata mwaka Mmoja toka izinduliwe

Binafsi natumia Windows XP hadi sasa hivi . Nakumbuka Vista iliipoingia watu walikimbia kuupgrade. lakini baada ya mwaka hata Microsoft wenyewe walisema Vista ni kituko. Kwa mfano huu unaweza kuona kuwa the more u upgrade ealrie the more unakuwa umeajiriwa na kama tester bila kujua. Kwa hiyo ni muhimu kutoa muda japo wa mwaka kujiridhisha kuwa OS fulani imekuwa stable. Huu ushauri ni kwa wale wanataka kukimbilia kuupgrade kwenye Window 7.

Usifuate Mkumbo wala kusikiliza watu wa Masoko. Kuna neno Linaitwa Technology fever. watu wengi tunapenda kuonekana tuko latest na tunakwenda na wakati. Ni bora ujue kwa nini unatumia Kompyuta yenye window 7 na sio XP au Vista. Style hii ya tecnology fever kwa mtazamo wangu Iphone wanaitumia kuwakamata watu japo iphone ina mapungufu mengi. Mfano kwangu one key feature ya simu ni camera. iphone is weak kwenye hii> je watu wangapi wanatumia hizo application za iphone.

kingine kwenye hii techonology fever watumiaji wengi inabidi wakumbukekwa jinsi Window Vista ilivyokuwa na matatizo hawatakiwi kuwa wepesi wa kuapgrade. Unless kompyuta inakuja iko preinstalled.

Kwa hiyo tuwe tunajiuliza maswali haya na mfano wa majibu nimeyaweka kwenye mababo.

kwa nini nihame kutoka teknolojia hii kwenda ile?( Imepitwa na wakati, haiwi supported na wasambazaji? imenivutia kwa muonekako, its talk of the town)
Kwa nini ninunue Iphone na si Nokia, samsung au motorolla.( Recommedation, Matangazo unayoona yamekuvutia, Mazoea, Specification ilizonazo ndio hasa unataka na unazitumia na haziko kwingine)

kwa hiyo kwenye maamuzi ya kununua vifaa vya tekonoljia tusikubali watu wa masoko watuchagulie bidhaaa kwa kutuyajia streghts za bidhaa hiyo waulize pia weakness ya hiyo bidhaa.

Nawasilisha kwa mjadala.

Nakubaliana na wewe kumbe hii Windows 7 bado hata Mwaka haijafikishaa? Mimi Computer yangu ilikuwa inatumia Windows XP Pro Service park 2 lakini Tangu nime Upgrade kutoka Windows XP Pro kwenda Windows 7 Ultimate wakati mwengine nikiwa kwenye Chat ya MSN Mesenger inakuwa hii Windows 7 ina Freez ina ganda kama barafu bila ya sababu yoyote. Nimejaribu kuuliza Google Search Engine inaniambia kuwa Ku Freez kunatokana na Vumbi kwenye Computer. Nimejaribu kutowa Vumbi lakini inafanya kazi ikifisha wiki moja inarudia vile vile Ku Freez kuganda na ikisha ganda huwezi kutumia kitu mpaka uiwashe tena upya.Basi hayo matatizo yake hii Windows 7 na kuna baadhi Hardware haikubaliani navyo ukiweka kwa mfano bluetooth na baadhi ya kamera webCam hazitofanya kazi. Na Wakati Mwengine huwa na Scan Computer kuangalia kama kuna Virus namaliza ku Scan hakuna Virus yoyote. Na ukiangalia kwa ndani zaidi hii Windows 7 ina mapambo tu mengi kwanza inakwenda taratibu sana nimejuta kwanini nimeicha Windows XP Pro.Nawashauri wale wenye Windows XP Pro wawe nayo kwa muda wa Mwaka wangojee kwanza mpaka hii windows 7 ifanyiwe marekebisho vizuri. Wasikubali kuingia mkenge kama mimi ulivyonikuta asanteni sana.

Lakini downside moja nayojua ya Window7 ni kama unapirated versiion Microsoft can corrupt you OS easily kwa kutuma vitu vinaitwa Security update. Kuna forum niliona user wenye pirated version wanatahadharishwa wasifanye update fulani kwa kuwa ilikuwa ni update ya kucheki validity ya OS.

Sijui kama kuna anayesema Windows7 is bad. Ninachosema ni kuwa it beeter u give time bofere u upgrade. na one should now why she is upgrading.

Wala sijasema this operating systems is best than that au this application is beeter nimesema beofe u upgrade ppl should think.

Binafsi nimefanya kazi za supprort. Kuna mama 1ja niliwai kumsaidi .Tatizo lake ilikuwa ni dogo tu kuna mtaalamu alienda kumlia hela kwa kumuwekea Ms office 2007. Yule mama yeye alijifunza na alikuwa confortable na Office 2003. Kwa hiyo huyu jamaa yeye aliupgrade for sake kompyuta ya yule mama iwe na latest released Office. But yule mama hakuwa akihiitaji kutumia new features zilizoko kwenye Office 2007. Na mabya zaidi akakutana na interface tofauti ambayo hakuzoea. sao utendaji wake wa kazi ukapungua. This Does not mean kuwa Office 2007 ni mbaya. Wala haimaanishi Office 2003 iko perfect.

Kama umesoma Thread yangu na za wachangijai wengine btn the line unaweza kuelewa

Mfano Mzizi mkavu anasema ka-upgrade from Xp to Windows 7.Nina hakina Kwa kompyuta iliyokuwa originally designed for XP kuweka Windows 7 ni kuionea. windows 7 ni memory hungry OS. Kwa mzizimkavu anweza kuichukia Windows7 kumbe tatizo sio windows 7 bali tatizo hakujiuliza maswali ya msingi before upgrade.
