Netbook Version of Windows 7 to Retain Full Features
- 5 Comment
The rumor that the netbook version of Windows 7 will have limited capabilities has proven to be untrue. According to a TGDaily report, a version of the Windows 7 software will be available for netbooks and it will have most of the “regular” OS’ functions – even though these are still unknown.

The new OS is supposed to be based on the Windows 7 Starter Edition software and Microsoft has recently announced that it will remove its three-app limit for the Starter Edition of the operating system. We’re sure you’re excited to hear more about Windows 7 for netbooks or just Windows 7 in general, so we’ll be sure to keep you posted. Stay tuned.
