7 vs. XP

I think 7 is going to better than XP as they might even decide to stop free support for XP. Sooner or later your going to have to change to a new operating system like Windows 7 I'm using XP right now but as soon as 7 is out for full release then i'm getting it Hopefull it doesn't fail as much as XP.

 

I vote for XP and when Window 7 is full released, I will go for the best one.

 

RC is now imminent too isn't it? I read MS want beta testers to clean install it or upgrade from a Vista image.

i dunno about vista haters! Seriously use it if you have a good computer!!!!! I use to love XP but now use vista since it is faster and works great have no problem with it. Just takes time to get use to it!

 

xp for the moment

 

Extremely close poll its been like that since the beginning of the thread 88 vs. 85

 

I have been using Windows 7 for a long time now. In my opinion Seven beats Vista but XP beats Seven .

 

I'll definately try 7, but I never gonna buy or install it for good, b/c M$ really pissed me off - what they call Win 7 should be released as Service Pack for Vista ! I mean, they just polished Vista a little, added some more flashy effects and boom - another 10 versions of the same OS, each one more expensive than the other...

 

7 after using it so long, I'm to comfortable with it, that using anything else feels unnatural.

 

At first I agreed with you milo, although I hope that when it comes to the final release of Windows 7 there is a secret something that packs a punch. The improved startup and shutdown times seem to be accepted as a success, but isn't this just something for a Vista SP, likewise with the taskbar? Aesthetically it deserves to be a SP but I believe that there is and will be more big performance and "behind the scenes" improvements.

 

I think Vista is the brightness future. Vista supoort 64 bits and it will take the place of XP soon
