Windows 7 Newsgroup - available?
I have tried to find the windows 7 Newsgroup in this list of Newsgroup where this one on Vista is, but I do not get a hit. Is there one in this group that I can add to my list and use to ask some questions? Also, a second question: Windows Vista has a lot of pretty and nice graphics, and pretty colors, etc, but it is very difficult to find some thing there when you are lost and the folder systems is extremely complicated sometimes. I use Vista now, have had it for about two years now, and I still have difficulty finding the logic of the folder system sometimes. I don't think that my former Windows XP was so complicated (do people agree?) Is the new Windows 7 as complicated as Vista? (I do not have Windows 7 yet). Do other people feel the same way about the difficulty of the Vista? Please advise.

Unfortunately it's highly unlikely that there will be any Microsoft Windows 7 newsgroups. Apparently Microsoft has decided that web-based forums are better than newsgroups and they are putting their efforts there. I'm personally sorry that's the case, but it's their decision, not mine. However there is at least one non-Microsoft Windows 7 newsgroup: alt-windows7.general. Not all servers carry it (at least not yet), but here's one free news server that does: aioe.org -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP (Windows Desktop Experience) since 2003 Please Reply to the Newsgroup

Any problems with Windows 7 XP mode?
I would like to ask XP users a question about Windows 7.I am looking at a Dell Vostro 3400 laptop w/ Windows 7 pro 32 bit and XP mode so I can use my XP software a little longer.

Upgrading GP 7.0 to 9.0
Hi everyone, Can anyone guide on how to upgrade from Great Plains 7.0 to Dynmaics 9.0 ? Thank you very much Ajay There's no direct path from 7.0 to 9.0 so you'll first need to upgrade to 7.5 or 8.0. You'll want to look at the upgrade guides for those versions for specifics. I started this job the day the company upgraded from 7.0 to 9.0. They chose to do the 7.0 to 7.5 to 9.0 path but that may no longer be the best option since support for 7.5 has been discontinued.
