Windows 7 has lots of cool features that are overlooked.  Did you know that Windows 7 can burn CDs and DVDs all by itself?  You don’t need Roxio or Nero to burn files any more.  Just use version 7’s own software.  This new feature has forced Nero to offer free software in the hope that users will buy the upgraded version.

Also, the Windows 7 operating system has an ISO burner built in.  An ISO burner allows you to copy software from the Internet and make it bootable.  For instance, if you need to download Windows or a Ghost image software, that needs to be booted into to work, the ISO burner via Windows will do that for you.  In previous Windows versions, you needed a third-party software to buy in order to install the ISO burner software.

So, as you can see, there are some neat little features built into Windows that allows you to work within Windows instead of shopping for must-have software, especially for burning CDs and DVDs.  Windows 7 sure is turning into Microsoft’s best kept secret, or as we like to say, their saving grace after releasing Windows Vista.
