I already don’t like it, don’t even need to see it! Every time I try the latest update I regret it!
Considering how rough Vista was, and since 7 is essentially the non-beta Vista, it ought to be released as a service pack with a giant “We’re very sorry” attached to it.
Instead, it looks like we’re going to have to buy this one too.
Windows 7 is like Vista, only they took out all the suck and replaced it with awesome.
More literally, its less annoying, and doesn’t eat RAM for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a midnight snack.
Gets huge ++’s in my book. I can finally dump XP.
I'm perfectly content as of now, but will download, jump through the hoops and install the Windows 7 RC next week anyway. It means probably having to reinstall all my other applications and stuff, but what the heck.
I really think Microsoft has a winner here. I haven't looked back since upgrading from Vista to Windows 7.
Still can't figure out this "Libraries" business though...
I think most people who give it a try will quickly become big fans as well.
Well, except for you Linux people...
with your open-toe sandles...
and Argyle socks...
Unlike Windows Vista, Windows 7 has far better performance optimization, so good that it can even run reasonably fast on netbook computers with 1 GB of RAM, Intel Atom CPU, and 160 GB hard drive. I can imagine what Windows 7 would be like on a machine with a real Intel Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, or Core i7 CPUs....
1. Does it have the dreaded DRM overhead which cancels the speed benefits of new hardware?
2. Does it require Microshaft's permission to upgrade my hardware or replace failed components?
If either of those is present, they have wasted a lot of money, time and effort.
I will never buy and/or use VISTA or a VISTA work-alike in my entire life.
Period.
When I got my Vista OS, I threw away the software and kept the box. The box is nice and shiny and I keep my odds and ends in there, like USB drives and other things.
