My facebook post just now:
Can now preview Windows 8 and it looks just like the Windows phone. Terrible. Windows 7 Enterprise. Here to stay. See what Windows 9 brings. Cause 8 is not looking promising.

Although 800x600 is supported by 7, 1024x768 is the minimum suggested res for 7. Anything below that it pops up saying certain objects won't fit correctly.

Thanks for the clarification. Haven't ran that rez since Doom 95 and DOS prompt. But then again OS's were not around then either. LoL.

Use the Windows setup thingy, it gives you 3 choices to install the os (on top of your current os, flash drive, .iso file)
