Windows 7. Anyone use it? It's actually quite great, definitely a major improvement over Vista.
I'm wondering how fast is it compared to vista, because if it's a lot faster than vista then I'm prolly gonna install it tomorrow
Yes I have Windows 7 installed, sooo much better than Vista but I do find that it's improvements are mostly based up on Leopard XD
Vash: With the functionality of a Windows OS, OH SNAP!
It's like Deja Vu.
Yeah my new vista computer's motherboard went bad, so I'm gonna have to replace it. Thinking of getting something with a free upgrade to 7. Think its worth it? From the reviews I have read it is quite something, better than the memory hog Vista anyway. Anyone like the SuperBar?
Suppose I should upgrade. There is a free one still out right?
You can still download the release candidate, but you can also download the final (RTM) version from *cough*the internet*cough*.
The release canditate does, but the final rtm shouldn`t. But you have to magically make it appear somehow on your puter (final version)
Siesta is right, the final RTM version is the... final version so they obviously won't make it restart on you :P
lol. Knowing microsoft they might make the final version shut down =D. Then Apple couldn`t say they copied em.

The RC won't have bi-shutdown till March though, if it's still working as fast as it is now (you know what Windows is like XD) then I would be happy to pay for it.
I`ll get a computer with a free upgrade to 7 than. Vista is a nightmare. Every once in a while it can`t load my account and I have to create another and copy over all of the files. Course, now my computer is sitting in the corner, dead. Anyone else have big problems with vista?
Hardly, Vista is a huge improvement over XP, even if it takes more resources. Now that SP 2 is out for Vista the operating system is very stable and I have had less problems than with XP. You just have to know how to use it right.
Anyway, Windows 7 is another huge improvement over Vista. It is even more stable, even in RC form and way snappier. If Microsoft keeps this up I will definitely be a satisfied customer.
Don't forget, Free AV protection from Microsoft is on the way at the release of 7. You just have to make sure to download it since it is not bundled due to legal issues. It is supposed to be superior to every AV on the market in almost every way, except maybe detection rates(which are apparently very good).
Nor will IE 9 be bundled hoo-rah!
It's alright...I think I'll stick with OS X though.
OS X > Win XP > Win 7 > Vista
I can't decide if I want to keep XP or upgrade to 7. =\
XP and Seven are pretty level but when Seven is released XP will be two generations old and virus updates will stop being as good, and software i.e. games could well stop being made for XP
This is becoming more and more 4chan everyday.
