I think Windows 7 is much better Xp and vista. Regarding hardware support and drivers, a newer operating system is always better than an older one.
Not always true. The day when I upgraded to windows 7 I lost my partition. Its the Stellar Phoenix Windows data recovery software which helped me out.
I've just now upgraded to win7 and its rocking !! It is not getting stuck, like xp now and then even if I open many applications :d
This discussion has been running for a long time but since the opinions are still pouring on I guess there's nothing wrong in adding my word that Windows 7 definitely doesn't suck as much as Vista 7 definitely beats XP and Vista in a number of comparison tests and it just needs some time to bring in the XP users to its side, who are still using old machines. Once these people get more powerful machines, they'll certainly find that 7 runs much smoother than XP.
Here in work in Brazil , a supermarket chain! Have win2003, sometimes leads to trouble some services, but easy to solve. I think not perfect, but I think it could be better. Maybe win2007 is best, but not tested in Business yet! Also depends on the occasion. For home , is logic , win7 is best of all! (Microsoft) Newbies. Linux for others.
In my opinion, Windows XP is the best choice for normal home users. Windows 7 is good for business users and PC lovers.
As above, windows XP rulez, even 98 rocks. Im using windows 7 and I feel that it still has some small buggs here and there =/
To me Windows 7 is far more better than XP. I've been using it in both of my desktop and laptop without any trouble. I found it fast, reliable and well organized.
I am also feel that windows 7 is giving good performance than windows XP , as a developer I am able to compile the live chat application quickly , It will take some minutes in Windows XP
Windows 7 is much better than XP because of preempting multitasking which sucks in XP.. Also memory management is similiar to UNIX systems so responsivnes of 7 is so great. After installation you don't need to install any driver or set things up. Everything just work out of box (most of the time), and so one. After many years of XP along with 9 years of using various linux distros I'm really happy with windows 7.
haha, XP sucks. It's way to easy to hack. Also, if you think Windows 7 is slow, then try windows vista, It's even worse. Windows 7 is the best imho.
