Windows 7 Pro’s From a user standpoint:

• Ability to Pin programs to the Taskbar or Start Menu • Search feature • A better desktop. The taskbar has bigger buttons and full-sized

previews—and you can pin programs to it for one-click access. Also Snap, Peek, and Shake give you easy (and fun) new ways to juggle all those open windows. Online help available

From a tech support standpoint:

• It is supported, XP is near end of life. • The OS has most of the hardware drivers needed to attach new/old

hardware. • Good reason to “end of life” old software and hardware to move

forward.
