Is Windows 7 Faster?

Yes. Windows 7 is faster compared to its older versions. Microsoft re engineered all the services and made it faster.

Windows 7 is faster in startup, shutdown, resume, and other user sessions. Windows 7 team designed a new trigger based service controller that enables service developers to mark services.
Interestingly Windows 7 can manage when to make resources available for services that employ this trigger platform for Starting and Stopping.

This OS will be the most user friendly OS ever before!
