Windows 7 to Extend Readyboost
Martin | Nov 01, 2008 | Comments 8
The German computer magazine Winfuture revealed in a recent post that Microsoft will extend Readyboost support in Windows 7. Readyboost was introduced in Windows Vista and was used to add flash drive caches of up to 4 Gigabytes to the system. The main intention of Readyboost was to provide lower end systems running Windows Vista with better performance by utilizing those additional flash caches.
The updated Readyboost in Windows 7 will see several advancements. The 4 Gigabyte restriction will be lifted which essentially means that flash drives with larger capacities can then be used as additional cache. The limit to one Readyboost device has also been removed which gives users the possibility to use multiple flash drives as additional caches in Windows 7.

hey i have a question is windows 7 an update for windows vista or not ???
Windows 7 is the successor of Windows Vista. It is build upon Windows Vista but a independent product.
Every Windows version is an ‘update’ on the previous… the product is looked at, the bad improved, what doesn’t work is removed and new features are introduced.
In my previous researching on other operating systems
that there were more glitches and bugs in them, and
the thing that I would like to know is:Â When Windows 7
is released will all these bugs and glitches be completely
removed before Microsoft Releases Windows 7?
One more question that i have is: Will all of the current
software that is installed on all Windows Vista operating
systems be compatible with this new operating system?
  Thankyou very much

absolutely! microsoft guarantees that if it runs on vista it works with windows 7 =)
Can anybody help me to just brief me the points ( latest features) of Windows 7
Hi Den
In reference to your question the answer to your question is
No. Windows 7 will be replacing Vista and it’s supposed to
be an awful lot more reliable than older versions of Windows
because Microsoft failed to get all bugs and glitches
 completely out of them… Well everybody i hope you
do enjoy Windows 7 when it’s released in 2011….
windows 7 is scheduled for release in late 2009 or early 2010.
It’s worth noting, however, that 7’s codebase only includes code that they feel is final build-quality, based on their new approach at building it, so they could really release it whenever they want.
