Having beta tested it, Windows7 is much better than Vista in many ways. Programs do load faster, OS boots up quicker. That being said, quite a few programs will not run (don’t try to load a Win 95,98,2000, ME program and quite a few XP programs, the system will crash). Most drivers from Vista also will not work though Win7 does load fairly good generic drivers. It has a tendency to lose files (because of the virtual file system).

To all you people who trash MS … Win 7 has one competitor and that is Windows XP. Do you realize that the so called failure Vista sold more copies than OSX will sell in 30 years? There is no OS war … get a life

Microsoft has done well. A common misconception (by the handful of Mac and Linux users), which often results in ignorant negative comments, is that Windows competes with Mac. Windows is the dominant operating system. Microsoft’s campaign in Windows 7 is to win over XP users, not Mac or Linux users.

I’ve been happy with my Mac for a little over three years now and OS-X just keeps getting better and staying well ahead of Windows. Haven’t you noticed that Windows is just trying to keep pace with Mac OS-X?.. it’s more Mac-like than ever before.

It seems pretty cool but not in the budget since everything I have works great.
I’ll give it 2-3 years so they can work out the bugs.

Hey look windoz is looking more and more and more and more ….. like Apple OSX, except it will crash and freeze and be incompatible with 1,000 application and will have bugs and security holes. The good news is I bought Apple for $11 in 1992 (topped out at $182 today), and Microsoft is down to $24 or $26 today, I’ll by MS this week. Then when they finally dump that jacka** Ballmer it will rise into the 50′s or 60′s and I’ll make another killing! I love this country!

NOTHING microsoft has tried to flog for the last ten years has worked. With all the lawsuits from ripping off other developers, unfair trade practice for which they were nailed in the EU, Microsoft is the most arrogant corporation in American, selling (ooops, its licensing so they can’t be sued) the most flawed product on the planet. New Windows? ha,ha,ha…..
