Windows 7

So Basically this is a giant kick to the ass for vista users.

Yeah, Vista blows.

In all honesty, Vista shouldn't have even been put out.... They should have just waited for Windows 7 and left XP out for people to use.

Windows 7 cuts the requirements in half of vista, if not more. Its like.... A god OS.... I have high hopes for it... Watch those hopes get slashed :P

Now that there are some good features out which can satisfactorily convice me to move to winxp to 7. i'm happy with the release.

Windows 7 is great! It is so much better than Vista. It's what Vista should of been. Vista was a complete failure, the security was way over the top and it wasn't even that secure anyway. Prompt you for this and prompt you for that. Do you confirm that you want this program to be open. YES I DO I wouldn't of click on it in the first place!

They threw all that out the window with Windows 7. Also there is this neat feature with having called 'Magnifyer' so you can see texts easier. And the feature 'Snipping Tool' so you can screenshot with precision without capturing the whole screen. Class

I've been using Windows 7 for just a little over a week now and it's great. I still have windows xp on dual boot on another hdd so I switch back and forth when I need to. But the windows xp mode in Win7 makes compatibility that much easier.

+1 for Win7 after trying it out for real (not the beta version I had a few months back).

yeh u right, window 7 is a great os after window vista and xp, i cannot wait to have window 7

When was the last time you created a system restore point? You might want to look and see if one was created before you updated Windows because one should have been automatically created. If one was, a suggestion would be to roll back to that previous restore point.
