recently reinstalled win 7 pro on my box due to hard disc failure.

I had to scour the internet for the manual install for SP1 and a few other things so I could get Windows update to get the rest. Found them on some sort of software archive site, as MS took the downloads off their site.

After this, I’m switching to linux. Only reason I kept windows was for Gaming, which I’ll be able to do on the steam linux platform shortly.

Oh dang, I forgot about not being able to get updates for windows 7. I figured ms woild,keep the ones they had up,till they discontinued 7. Dang it.

Supposedly some site was going to keep updates to 7 going, but not sure if they are stil, around or not? Anyone know about that site?
