So you got yourself a copy of Windows 7 Beta, RC or RTM and was wondering how the setup process would go. Well, one thing Microsoft has been doing so well is increasing the ease of installation so anyone can do it! This is a K.I.S.S (Keep It Simple and Stupid) guide to installing Windows 7 and these steps are somewhat the same for Windows Vista. It is very easy to install a Microsoft Operating System so read through this guide and save yourself $50 or more that Best Buy may charge to install it for you. So lets get on with it! Here are the precautions and preparations for installation and the actual procedures follow below.

• Backup everything that is important to you, if you plan to keep you secondary partition, move important files to that partition
• Save all bookmarks and tabs you may have in your internet browser in a Text file so you can get them back without forgetting them
• You may also want to save the My Documents folder as it may have most of your important things
• Be prepared to install fresh new copy of the OS rather than upgrading as it is more recommended/less conflicts
• Keep a list of third party hardware or drivers that you may need to install separately so you can do that right after the format
• You will be losing all of your data so think again and make sure you have everything you need, backup is the most important part of this entire process

The new iPod Touch will supposedly have a camera and mic allowing for phone calls via VOIP and also 64 GB worth of space.  Here is the list of new features for Firmware 3.1 for iPhone and iPod Touch so far:
