I just convinced my parents to buy a new desktop, and im trying to help them enter the digital age. I looked around and it doesnt look like windows 7 comes with a day planner/calendar program. Or maybe it does and I cant find it. What do you guys run for a cal/planner?

thanks,

mac fanboi

Office Outlook. You can configure it to run without email capabilities if their ISP doesn't support it.

sb253 · 10-30-2009, 03:56 AM

windows 7 doesnt have sidebar? there is applications you can download for vista's sidebar.

*enkei2k* · 10-30-2009, 11:29 AM

i use...

Rainlendar - Home

check it out...not sure if it handles in win7 though, i have it for XP and it's cool.

As was said, you can use Outlook or Mozilla Sunbird..anything that has support for .ics is good, but I don't think they'll be getting that advanced with it.

sb253 · 10-30-2009, 02:52 PM

right on. I saw that Sunbird thing last night. ill check it out.

Windows live has the calendar and planner. And window 7 is awsome so far, trouble free.
