Windows7

[Chris.]

who has it?

who likes it?


i am on it now... and i must say... its alot smoother than vista was... a few options that make it MAC like...

trying to navigate the control panel is a pain in the ass... but other than that... i like it. so far...is only been 2 hours... it may change..lol

I've got it. Been using it since the first day of the beta testing. I like it. its smooth like xp but its shinny like vista. not to mention the fact that you can run pretty much anything you can think of with compatibility mode. been playing oregon trail for win95 again lol.

ive been skeptical of it still. i build systems every now and then but i may be upgrading to it soon for a new gaming rig

I like it. I got a knew laptop that has Home Premium on it. I upgraded from a laptop that had XP on it. This is soo much cooler!

im still running the RC. the new taskbar is the best feature. as well as the drag to the top and it maximizes itself thing. starts up fast. and shuts down fast.

i booted vista today. and man it looks so old. seriously. its going to be sad when this RC runs out.

XP still is the most stable windows to date....

it's probably going to be a year or two before i go from xp to 7. i don't have any issues with xp and i know it inside and out so if i do get a bug i can fix it. kinda skeptical about learning a new os but my gaming pc is getting pretty old so i guess 7 is inevitable

from xp id say go to vista.... then go to 7...

casue ive been on vista for a while... and i still cant figure out whats going on here in 7.... its all newish... and it makes me go through like 10 different clicks to make the mouse pointer faster... and first you have to find it..it took me 20 min the first time

Yep, Best way of going about it if your upgrading from XP. Vista Looks like a Toy ass OS next to 7 imo.

 

[Chris.]

im telling you... im having a hard time doing simple tasks cause im used to doing things a certain way

 

[NYGraFFit1]

it's definitely something to get used to, but idk after messing around nd using 7 i really cannot go back to any OS other than a Mac cause it's simply just outdated. it feels too simple.

I went from XP to 7 without issues. I am running the PC on my home PC until I want to rebuild it. I have a copy of Ultimate I just need to do it. Running professional at work for a while now and love it.

The only thing i noticed so far is that the task bar gets kind of glitchy.

im having trouble opening a second browser window(firefox) I like to dual screen with my tv and stream movies online. I'd like to have a window open on that screen and another on my laptop to continue browsing.

that im having problems with firefox not opening sometimes. have to go into Task Manager Processes and end the firefox.exe file.

all of this may be firefox's problem. other than that..Windows 7 is good

im thinking of upgrading to Windows7... vista is really slow compared to xp

I had issues with Firefox around the time when Facebook was having all of its issues. I just gave up on it and went back to Opera. Haven't noticed and issues with Firefox on the released versions yet.
