Weird...My 360 is awesome, and I've never had a single issue with it, and Windows 7 is the best OS I've ever used.
That should be gadget freak I think. I'm a girl lol. Ya know, unless you have the most outdated PC ever, Win7 should work, i......im confused by some of the comments to be honest. I have a netbook, yes, a netbook so hardly the most powerful thing out there. It came with Windows XP, which is fine and dandy, I upgraded it to Windows 7 as soon as I could. Not starter, not home but, Ultimate. And I also have Adobe Photoshop CS5 and I've had no problems whatsoever :s. Works just as well as it did on my full size laptop, with better specs all round. I'd only have probs if i stuck Vista on, which every laptop I owned had problems with Vista, even if it was built for Vista X_X. Long live Windows 7 .
I think you were extremely unlucky, lets go by parts Vista: Yes it does suck, worst OS ever mad Win 7 - I run it on my Laptop and destktop since beta version come along. Have to tell you that i am very pleased with it and no problems what so ever. I dont use Adobe products but my house mates do and they never had problems either. Xbox - The RROD sucks but is possible to fix and seems they are better and better on it. MSN - I use msn since it come to existence. Excepting some issues i had some few months ago it always worked properly Hotmail - My main mail for years, i have 3 accounts, never had problems in log in/out of any of them Bing - If you dont like it why you even care to think of it? Doesnt seem they have made any harm to you did they? So overall you are really right about 1 product and more or less right about other one. All the rest is just personal bad luck with MS
You're a nub. Windows 7 is brilliant. I also run Windows Vista 64-bit & it hasn't given me any problems; the only downside of it is it boots slower than XP & that's where 7 came in, it's basically faster than both Vista & XP in every way, more secure, and just has way more/better/useful features. If you don't like Windows, you have a choice: Apple Leopard OS, Linux, or BSD such as PC-BSD.
Microsoft has been innovating for the past few decades. They may be in trouble now but they have contributed huge to the IT world by introducing cheaper computers and systems to millions and millions of household.
Absolutely false! Microsoft has innovated little to nothing. Name ONE new thing they have created on their own over the last decade. Again, absolutely false! First, Microsoft does not make computers. Second, Windows adds cost to the price of computers far more than any other OS. In fact, until the US Justice Department and several states sued Microsoft and won billions of dollars for anti-competitiveness, computers today would be much higher in cost than they are now. Not only the cost of the OS but many forget the cost of running that OS. Windows needs hardware support just to carry the burden of all those pretty blinking lights and explosions so many are enamored with. THAT is why a Mac doesn't need the horsepower of a PC. It just doesn't carry all that added weight of Windows. Using Windows is NOT cheap.
Somewhat OT - This morning Microsoft was downgraded by FBR Capital Markets, a stock analyst, as corporations are seen to be slow to want to upgrade to Windows 7 and the huge interest by the enterprise in .... the iPad; something Microsoft has no response to.
