It's official Windows 7 has a release date. October 22, 2009 just in time for the holidays. I can't wait to get a copy of Windows 7 RTM. I've been running the Release Canidate for over a month now. I think that this is a real improvment over Windows Vista.

Microsoft has released a new search engine. This search engine is call BING and you can get to it by going to the following URL www.bing.com . What little I've used this search engine I do like it. I will have to use this engine more. I do think that Google is in for a run even if it is a short run for Microsoft.

I've installed Windows 7 RC and Google Chrome. After having issues getting Google Chrome working I found that you need to modify the properties of Google Chrome to get it working on Windows 7. Below is the line of code that needs changed.

C:\Users\shawnb\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --in-process-plugins

The bolded part of the above line is what needs to be added. Once the above has been completed you will be able to use Google Chrome.
