In what could be a preemptive strike by a computer company, Shuttle is announcing that their computers work with Windows 7 Ultimate. If you are not familiar with the Shuttle name, they produce what is best described as mini-computer known for their space saving designs. In a press release the company states the following information:
Elmshorn/Germany, 2009-08-14. Shuttle Inc., the market leader in the Mini-PC sector and manufacturer of Multi-Form-Factor solutions, now certifies that its products are fully compatible with Microsoft’s new operating system.
In a complex process the Product Management Team in Taiwan conducted initial tests of several different machines and Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate RTM. All tested machines were ready for use following installation of the operating system and drivers from relevant manufacturers.
Turnkey Mini-PC complete systems with 24-month pick-up-and-return service are already in preparation and are expected to be available from specialist retailers or via the Shuttle Systems Configurator when Windows 7 goes on sale.

Suppliers of Shuttle Mini-PC Barebones and complete systems can be found via the “Shuttle StoreLocator” www.shuttle.eu/buy.
I am sure in the next few months we will be seeing more OEM’s touting their computers as Windows 7 compatible.
Which brings up another interesting point. Just because an OEM says their systems are compatible, is this enough for we consumers? What we need to know also is how the new operating system performs with any given hardware.
Comments welcome.

I would love to know where they got the drivers for the SX38P2 Pro for the x38 chipset as there are no official Intel drivers for it and the lack of a decent x38 driver is causing no end of BSOD’s on the RTM for me. I don’t seem to be the only one either suffering issue’s with the x38 chipset and Windows 7 on the SX38P2 Pro.
Had to go back to Vista Ultimate x64 for now.

Maybe they should offer downgrade rights to Windows XP x64 Edition.
I may just not be buying a new computer for a while, this is ridiculous.
The next set of hardware I get will be thoroughly checked out to work with Linux. I was just totally not expecting Microsoft to drop that PlayReady crap on me, that totally ruins Windows 7 for me.
I even had the thing on pre-order at Newegg and canceled it once I noticed that. I may well be with XP x64 til 2014. I integrated all the latest hotfixes onto a new blank last night.
