Today I keep walking on the software trail. After installing Internet Explorer 7 yesterday as I related in Bad Links, etc… and being prompted to update this and that and check too many choice boxes and then being prompted to do the same for Windows Live Search, I was tired and annoyed that it took me so much time.
To stay honest, this morning I dowloaded and installed Opera 9 and it might have taken me a whole 5 minutes in comparison to Explorer 7 that factoring in Windows Live was more in the 30 minutes ball park.
It seems also that adding Windows Live Search functions to Outlook slows it down quite a bit.
My advice to Microsoft, in the future, let us install the basic functions first. We can worry about the add-ons later. This would speed the process. My vote goes to Opera 9. Thank you.
How can you call IE7 slow ? It’s faster than IE6 for me and more effective, much faster startup time also compared to Opera and Mozilla/Firefox.
Maybe you are using a slow machine, like slower than 1.8 GHz and less than 1 GB RAM ? Thats what I have on my oldest now running machine.
