Have used XP for several years main probs "hang", using vista came with machine never had problem so far, not tried win 7 but will use open source from next time
Windows 7 is a much better improvement from Vista. It just depends if your machine can handle it or not.
Probably the reason why my vendor advised me to not go for it and instead suggested to remain with XP... in my last system upgrade! Regards, RightMan
Me too . Since the beginning of 2002 I went from win 98 to the yummy XP. I was exposed to vista just long enough to make me angry about a year or so ago... My vendor was fresh out, I was in need quickly, so I jumped ahead with the windows 7. Some of my programs wont install and work on this machine even tho I adjusted "compatibility". But I encourage you to go ahead and get acquainted with it, it isnt as bad as some people make it seem. Me saying that is a lot (I was diehard XP until last hard drive malfunction).
XP works fine; but Se7en is the future. More UI and a better UX. Many software only support Se7en now, ofcourse with previous versions' compatibility mode aswell, it's gotta be better.
I am having no problems with Windows 7! I had so many issues with Vista with software not working and incompatible drivers. Windows 7 > Windows Vista. Windows 7 > Windows XP.
