Nothing like looking back and comparing what was promised to replace windows 95...and what we have now...we still don’t have everything.

"Much better than Vista, and the best Windows yet. That seems to be the consensus view on Windows 7, and after two and a half months with the final build, I more or less agree - despite the niggling voice that says behind the new taskbar it is not really so different from Windows Vista.

If it's not "really different," how can it be "much better?"

I’m going to hang onto XP for another year. It works for me.

No one has ever made so much money (Bill Gates) selling such a crappy product (Windows) in the history of this world.

Did Windows 7 bring back the "up one folder button" that they took away in Windows F^!@ Vista?

This thing

Such a simple trivial thing, but it made searching for files so much easier instead of that (*^!@ ribbon BS

I happily installed Win XP Pro last night on my new computer.
