    For all of those interested and those who do not know yet Microsoft is officially launching Windows 7 today.

    There has been a substantial amount of positive feedback from this operating system unlike their Vista offering (not sure what they were thinking), but it seems they got it right this time.

    What are your thought on the new OS?

    They launch it today?Are you sure?I have heard that they have already launched it for some time.But I haven't
    used it,I only have the experience of using win server 2003.It's good and easy to manage.Maybe I will pay more
    attention to 2007.

    I saw it at Best Buy this morning but was confused about backwards compatability. It says it is compatible with Vista (whoopee) and if you want it to work with programs designed for XP you had to download some XP virtualization program and needed a processor that could handle it??

    One of my friends had beta version couple month ago already. He said works much faster than Vista. As for me, no thanks, I am in love with my mac desktop since I made switch about year and half ago.

    I already upgrade my company PC from Vista to windows 7 today.
    The installation is much more simpler than vista plus its more light in memory.

    Hi everyone,

    I found this article for anyone that is thinking of upgrading from
    xp to win7..

    http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704107204574471214064210176.html


    Personally I'm happy with XP, but some of the features of win7
    are pretty attractive.

    Hope this helps someone.


    Mike

    I heard only positive things about W7, I haven't got it yet but I'm looking forward to use it 100%, hope in a couple of days from now.
