Some have this version of Windows 7 and others have one of he several other versions. There are too darn many variables for any of you to make a blanket, irresponsible statement that the Sony Reader Library works on Windows 7.

At best, it is buggie on Windows 7. At worst, it simply won't run. And when it does run it has the most god awful interface I've seen in a long time. The interface does not follow accepted Windows guidelines, and it appears to be written in Flash or some other equally deficient software environment. It is slow, buggie, suckie beyond reason, and Sony should be ashamed for turning out such crap.
Now who's making a blanket statement? At best it works as it should because it works perfectly well here on three different Windows 7 based computers. Also, I do not find it slow at all. You complain about those of saying yes it works and then you go saying things that are just not fully true.
