Windows 7 Sneak Peek Recap
|
 |
Charles Watkins of New Horizons Memphis presenting at the Windows 7 Sneak Peek
|
|
| |
The Windows 7 Sneak Peek at New Horizons Memphis was a great success...Thank you to all 100+(!) students who joined us to preview the latest Microsoft Operating System throughout the day!
Our very own Charles Watkins covered multiple Windows 7 topics from Hardware Requirements to loads of Tips & Tricks. We also announced our first Windows 7 courses coming up in just a few weeks:
- 6291 Updating your Technology Skills from Windows XP to Vista/Windows 7 (Beta): November 30
- 6292 Installing and Configuring Windows 7 Client: December 9-11
Missed the Sneak Peek? Here are a few Tips for Windows 7 Users
Tip #1: Crunch The Numbers
The new Windows 7 calculator is a number cruncher’s dream. New functionality allows calculations in the following modes: Standard, Scientific, Programmer, Statistics. And that’s not all! Conversion formulas are available for: Temperature, Weight, Area, Time. Templates for gas mileage, lease estimations, and mortgage estimations are available as well!
Tip #2: Project Your Display With Ease
Plugging in a projector and projecting your display is a snap with the Windows 7 driver display utility, displayswitch.exe. Press Win+P to display the easy-to-navigate pop-up window. By hitting your arrow keys (or Win+P) you can switch through multiple display settings, such as “clone”, “extend” or “external only".
Tip #3: Command Junkies Only
One of the most popular power toys in Windows XP was “Open Command Prompt Here”, which enabled you to use the graphical shell to browse around the file system and then use the context menu to open a command prompt at the current working directory. In Windows 7 hold the Shift key down while selecting the context menu to get exactly the same effect. If the current working directory is a network location, it will automatically map a drive letter for you.
