Windows 7 初用笔记

终于下载并装好Windows 7 Beta，小用一下，爽！

界面亮丽

易用性和应用扩展性大大增强

速度和vista差不多

兼容性：尝试中，暂无大问题，估计兼容性OK

有趣的是：windows和Apple应用理念越来越相近了，Web应用和Google越来越近了。孔圣说的好，天下大同！

1。 界面

1。1 桌面，屏保，主题

最先被被注意到并每次必见的地方，总得下点功夫。对图像更好的支持让Win7靓丽的出场，桌面从vista的动态桌面更升级为可选图片更换的动态桌面；主题的选择更多样化，happy的Lizzy我选便了个温暖的主题。窗口透明感，层次感也增强，很美。



1。2 导航栏

非常向Apple Dock靠拢的设计，很好用。左下角显示正在使用的application，鼠标移到application上便自动显示这个application有多少窗口/标签。如IE，会显示现在有多少个IE窗口/标签打开，移开则隐去。进一步的把鼠标移动到某一个窗口/标签，便显示其内容，移开则隐去。更妙的是，当显示鼠标移至窗口时，窗口下层已经打开的窗口则虚化（注意下图显示窗口右方的透明窗口哦，就是已经打开的窗口虚化隐身），鼠标移至别处时，已打开窗口恢复正常显示。这样移来隐去，加上鼠标点击的减少，让窗口preview和切换非常方便。大赞一个！

八过，好像快速启动栏图标和正在运行的程序图标的确分不开--缺点

1。3 菜单栏的跳转功能

这个功能的解说各大论坛早已经铺天盖地，我抄：

快速启动栏中图标的Jump List弹出菜单可以实现许多相关功能，这点让它更容易被用户误认为是运行中的程序。但在开始菜单左侧的常用软件一栏中，Jump List就相当实用。比如，当用鼠标指向Word程序时右侧会显示最近打开的Word文档，指向IE时会显示最近打开的页面，指向Windows Live Messenger则会显示一系列相关应用。

1。4 文件夹管理 Library

变化不大。可以像outlook那样调整窗格浏览方式（也许vista里也有？）

主要是在导航栏里强调Favorite, 增加Homegroup。这个homegroup为何物，还没怎么研究。但导航栏增加这些感觉有点累赘，尽添些不是很使用的东西，不过这就是微软一向的风格吧。

比较好的是预览功能强了些，特别是照片的预览，说不出来，就感觉很漂亮。但相比Leopard的文件预览模式，还是苹果的强，连PDF都能预览，hohoho！

2。 新增和自带软件的加强

2。1 新增的好玩用处：

用鼠标把IE窗口拖到角落的时候，窗口会自动最大化；最大化时拖动窗口，会变小size。这样拖拽的用法倒是很符合Apple的设计理念。不过始终觉得windows里拖拽窗口大小要比苹果操作系统里的舒服多了。



2。2 Burn everywhere

几乎所有东西都能烧碟，照片，文档。。。在浏览器的右上方，总有一个Burn选项。这个是方便，但是为啥微软要我们什么都burn呢？火气太网旺需要王老吉？



2。3 Win7 一方面删除了些不必要的软件（如Msn和windows movie maker的旧版本，将新版本移至Windows Live, 虽未真正实现Web化，却减少了Win系统冗余，又促进用户对Web Application的支持和实际使用度），另一方面对本身自带的一些软件都有很好的加强。其中写字板Wordpad 和 画图板Paint 就是很好的例子：

A. Wordpad

新版的Wordpad简直就是简易版的小小MS Word! 基本的编辑功能一应俱全，而且与其他软件的互通性也被增强，从画图的button上可以直接打开。菜单的选择也很精心，甚至在快捷栏里加入了Subscript 和Supercript. 这样的Wordpad足以满足普通需要，根本不需要功能强大的word。

只可惜不能存成.doc or .docx，当然也不能打开word文档，会乱码 -- 微软还是不尽余力的要让大家买正版Office滴，钱不能少赚啊!

B。Paint

新版的画图板将以前Word，PPT里做图的一些元素也融入进来，可用性更强。存储格式加上.png，好与PS这样的制图软件的格式更好兼容。赞

3。软件兼容性

其实还是不知道，仅仅装了几个软件而已，继续测试中：



3。1 Windows Msn messenger：

装了Msn9，附带movie maker什么的一箩筐。这个自然没问题，否则不是自己打自己耳光吗。不过我在安装时的确出现问题：第一次安装不成功，原因不详；第二次顺利安装成功。说到windows live系列，还有一大堆可以讲的，以后另外开篇讲。



3。2 WinRAR，

windows下必备的解压缩软件，大致没什么问题，只是安装后第一次解压缩文件并不能打开，需要open-select program-WinRar 并记住选择才行。之后的运行还没发现问题。.osi文件能被系统自动识别为Dist image file，而非如以前那样显示和zip文件一样的图标。



3。3 Adobe Acrobat Reader 8

使用起来倒是没问题，只是安装的时候发现文字有点重叠：

不知道professional 的版本会不会有问题。



3。4 Google 拼音

没有任何问题。



4。 Windows Media center

这个从Vista版就开始大力推广的应用，看上去和Apple又是越来越像。还没深入试用，但感觉Vista里的是垃圾，Win7的用到一半，似乎不坏。anyway，试了才知道。不过微软不是大推家庭娱乐么，推吧推吧。



5。Sidebar and Gargeds

一开始说：怎么不见了？后来点击鼠标右键，才发现多了个Gargeds的选项，这样的改变其实不痛不痒。倒是Gargeds在桌面的位置灵活了，喜欢。

notes没Vista的好用



小结：

初用感觉很爽，明天继续努力，现在需要睡觉去。



第一次写这样的东东，好玩，这就是美其名曰“测评报告”吧，嘿嘿

Knocking on heaven's door

Am I stupid? Am I fool? Why can't I knock out the new tech world's door?

1. Windows 7
I thought I could install it today but:
1.1 can not move it to removal hard disk -- on apple it shows this item is can not been modified
1.2 can not burn it with Toast -- shows error - 50 connection not stable
1.3 can not zip it and copy to hard disk -- can not use betterzip to zip it
so i have to download it on Vista again
worring

2. Apple
still do not know how to use it!

not happy

Tired of thinking and doing

Getting tired of thinking and doing -- life is like this.

Visa, prepare for visa application: bank statements, money, application form and other documents need to be done before I go to CH. 

CH trip: alwasy wanna to know more before I go. Why not spend some time, just read articals, pictures and everything about the trip. Don't want to rush to somewhere, have a quick view and leave immediately. Wanna know what I see, wanna feel what I see, wanna have real trip. Why can't I just sit down and have a look? Also other arrangements need be done, such as printing all documents.

My Mac is not working in a proper way. So complicated and difficult to get everything settled. Not hapy :( will get there.

Good good study, day day up!

Add oil lizzy!

This is the direction of a celestial object, measured clockwise around the observer's horizon from north. So an object due north has an azimuth of 0°, one due east 90°, south 180° and west 270°. Azimuth and altitude are usually used together to give the direction of an object in the topocentric coordinate system. Sometimes, south is used as the starting point for azimuth angles instead of north, but on the Heavens-Above web site, north is always the origin. We sometimes include the nearest compass direction as an abbreviation to help clarify the azimuth angles value in degrees. Up to three letters are used and they represent azimuth angles in the following order; N (0°), NNE (22.5°), NE (45°), ENE (67.5°), E (90°), ESE (112.5°), SE (135°), SSE (157.5°), S (180°), SSW (202.5°), SW (225°), WSW (247.5°), W (270°), WNW (292.5°), NW (315°), NNW (337.5°)

Strict definition The azimuth of a point on the celestial sphere is defined as the angular distance measured towards the east, from north, along the astronomical horizon to the intersection of the great circle passing through the point and the astronomical zenith with the astronomical horizon.
