I've used this forum several times to solve XP probs and found the
people here extraordinarily helpful in ironing out my special (often
self-caused) bugs.
Now I've moved to Windows 7 Ultimate and am wondering if anyone can
suggest a similar Google-accessible newsgroup which could be similarly
useful. I've tried the moderated group just called 'windows 7' but get
the idea that no-one there really knows the system in-depth the way
people here understand XP.
Best wishes

There is the alt.windows7.general newsgroup available with some news
servers, but it is far from moderated. MS is moving towards forums and
although I prefer Usenet myself, IMO the best Win7 answers can be found in
this moderated forum here.
