Introduction
First of all, I want to thank everyone who provided feedback on my guide, Install Vista on Dell Mini 9 (USB). It has been a pleasure to give back to the community. As a thanks, I have added title pictures to the Vista guide as well as this one. (I know; I’m cheap.) That also means that I’ll be writing the same sort of guide for Windows 7! I finally convinced my girlfriend to let me at her Mini 9. I have been playing with the Windows 7 builds since build 7000 leaked (that’s all that’s been on my new gaming machine, actually) and I am very pleased with the new OS. As everyone knows, Windows 7 is what Vista was supposed to be, but Microsoft released way too early. But this is another topic; installing Windows 7 on the Dell Mini 9 is very similar to the Vista installation, but I have decided to rewrite an entirely new guide just to eliminate any confusion over small differences. I will do my best to make the guide as similar to the Vista instructions, and I’ll even be pulling sections word for word. As always, feedback is always appreciated.
