even though Windows 7 has not won me over by a long shot, i'd still like to say thank you to all those who have contributed to the Windows 7 Repository and DAZ's loader. from torrent i downloaded 7 in an hour (2.4GB) which is crazy fast for me even with high speed, so thanks to whoever seeded and hosted those files. and all those that contributed to getting DAZ's loader working so supremely because it has surely proven itself to work without a hitch for me. so thank you
