Although Microsoft generally gives a 30-day time limit for users to activate their copies of the company's operating system, for Windows they have come up with official 120 days timeline.

Microsoft allows users to install and run any version of Windows 7 for up to 30 days without requiring a product activation key, (25-character alphanumeric string) that makes the use of the copy legitimate.

Running Windows 7 on a netbook

Microsoft has said that any version of Windows 7 will run on a netbook. We try it with Windows 7 Ultimate.

This is seemingly significant notification from microsoft. As even currently many notebooks with limited hardware are unable to run Windows Vista. Hence for such notebooks microsoft recommends running win XP.

The surprising thing is although Microsoft is claiming that it will run on limited version notebooks but intel has not confirmed so. In fact they are saying they doubt the same.

Microsoft states that Windows 7 requires a 1-GHz processor, 1GB of main memory and support for DirectX 9 graphics with 128MB of memory (for the Aero interface). The company recommends that you have at least 16GB of available disk space for the installation; Windows 7 actually takes up about 5GB.
