I admit Windows 7 is better then Vista but I still prefer XP. I think a lot of people are still clinging onto XP. Not sure I want a prettier OS when I am doing just fine with XP.
I'm getting win7 at the end of the month , i heard its faster than xp , hoping all my apps work fine there.
It has a number of changes that are not positive. The poor support of legacy hardware and software is not good. The changes to simple things like the names of certain functions being changed, just because, is annoying. It's a hog, just like Vista. Otherwise, it's ok.
Windows 7 is much better than XP - I had to get some files from an XP machine recently and the user interface seemed terrible compared to Win 7. A lot of negativity comes from the fact that people are used to doing things one way - a lot of people never tried Vista, too (I didn't) and so initially they hate Win 7. Look at it like this, though - you don't expect every new thing to work exactly the same as an old thing, otherwise we'd all still be complaining that we don't know how to hand-crank our cars. Spend a little time learning how to use Win 7 and you'll see how much more efficient the UI really is. Also, for people who do have Win 7 - look at Launchy - it works the same way as the search on the start menu, but you can define your own shortcuts, and launch programs with parameters. So for example, if you wanted a quick shortcut to DP, you could create that and have the site open with Alt+space (to bring up launchy) / type 'dp' / hit enter, which is pretty nice.
Windows Vista SP2 is fine and much better than the previous Vista version. Windows 7 is good, and better than Vista. But some old driver won't work on Windows 7, even it says have backward compatibilities. Overall, i like Windows 7 rather than Windows Vista.
Yeah windows 7 is really good operating system if you compared with vista .it don't need a poll ,windows 7 will win easily.
