that is a motherboard / BIOS limitation for some PCs which don't support GUID. It does not apply to every single win 7 install . Millions of >2TB drives are sold every year, many of those must be to Win 7 users.
see here for GUID details

Windows XP 64-bit, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, or later: All of these operating systems support GUID Partition Table (GPT), which is a newer drive formatting process required to access beyond 2TB of drive space.
anyway, I could be wrong but I don't think anyone here has >2TB of books
