I’ve been using Windows 7 Beta for weeks now and it rocks. Why would I want to go backwards?

I dunno -- overboard DRM possibly (just a rumor)?

I appreciate your review of the new Windows. I love XP and want to keep it as long as I can.

You're right. Windows 7 is the best operating system yet released by MS. I've been using it since New Years without a hitch. I absolutely love it.

The only reason I can imagine downgrading to XP, my second favorite OS, is that it is somewhat less demanding of memory resources than Windows 7 or Vista. That might make it better suited for something like these netbooks which are all the rage.

BTW I've noticed a number of vendors are now offering drivers for Windows 7, nVidia updated my graphics yesterday, which suggest that the debut of the new version won't be plagued by a lack of software support which got Vista off to such a poor start.
