I installed TS2000i on Windows 7 Professional (32-bit) and it appears to

I don't know how a feed may affect it.
I recall I did have to set all the TS2000i executables to run in XP
compatibility mode.
Windows 7 does have some irritating quirks. Off the top of my head:
1. The keyboard repeat rate defaults to slow. You can set it for fast
repeat in the control panel, but if the computer goes to sleep or you
reboot, it's slow again.
2. External links in web pages don't open in a new tab or window in IE8.
They don't open at all. I had to run a batch file to register a huge
number of DLLs that Windows 7 evidently failed to register. Now IE8 opens
such links into new windows, but never new tabs. Better than nothing.

Rumor on Windows 7 seems to be wrong. Got a 64 bit HO machine for wife
with Windows 7 on it. Couldn't go back to XP as some part of the unit
is not compatible with XP. I had to upgrade one program that was a
century or so old but other than that it is very nice. Still has some
of that security question trash on it but it flows well.
May buy 7 for my media machine. Then the big step........ the
Trading Machine. There are some features in both Vista and 7 that are
great for Media. Not sure of anything that helps traders except maybe
the additional video features. The resolution can be set high and DPI
adjusted so you can still see the type. I like that. This is with
HDMI output.
