Got Windows 7? Get RAW on it’s Ass

Have you done as I have and just recieved/downloaded Windows 7 to get your PC working properly after suffering Vista for the last 2 years?
Good, because Win7 fixes a lot of things Vista got wrong, although they forgot something for us foto folk: RAW support when browsing files in Windows itself. By this I mean opening a folder and seeing the picture directly, not a generic icon.
Thankfully, Fast Picture Viewer is a wee little freeware program that fixes this, adding proper image preview of RAW foto files. This will a preview image to your RAWs within Windows, without having to fire up Adobe Bridge or other such RAW browsers.
I’m probably going overboard mentioning Win 7 so much, as it also works for Vista and XP.
What can I say, the delivery man brought me a Windoze version that works!
