Microsoft Releases Windows 7

[xyoop]

what is windows

[cakelover33]

windows makes harder tasks easier.

[JosefiNNNa]

Shut up bitch! What you are doing with your f*** fingers on the laptop screen?

[DarkDemon135]

Why use windows, when you have an open door to go through? Open source rules.

I don't know which way to go. I do a lot of video editing and I just don't want my programs to crash or freeze. I'm currently using windows vista. Should I upgrade to windows 7 or get a mac?

[Zephear]

Go with XP : )

Seriously though, I like Windows 7 much more than Mac OS. But on my harware Windows 7 doesn't crash, just as XP, just as Mac OS. They are all very stable. It's all a matter of preference, you can do ANYTHING on all of them (well, except for gaming :) ). I'm using XP because its GUI seems more responsive to me.

[wxix2]

Thanks.

I bought my first mac last year ... i'm never going back ... OS X is fantastic.

[Itanium153]

I agree OS X Kills winblows 7

[jonvanflan]

Microsoft did a good job of ripping off the app dock and a sort of Expose-like feature for arranging windows, that isn't as good as Expose on Mac OS X. Oh, and they ripped off the Apple store. Now there's a Microsoft store. If your interested in what Windows 8 will be like, you can get the next version of OS X. Microsoft has no original ideas. They just rip off Apple. Shameless...

A touch screen makes sense for a small handheld device (because you don't want to carry a mouse around, and there's no room for a touchpad). But for a desktop or laptop computer, I don't see the huge benefit. On my desktop (a Mac Pro), I have a 30" monitor that is about 3' away from me. How would a touch screen really be easier than a mouse? Maybe on a laptop, but then you need to move your hands to the screen and back to the keyboard. Microsoft's attempt to "one-up" Apple is misapplied & weak.

Windows 7 is SO GOOD

I used the RC for a long time can't wait to get the actual thing tomorrow

[billeybop]

Why should the consumer purchase yet another OS because its predecessor was faulty? I have been through them all and we get the same result? The home edition is only $120.00. This industry has to take zero responsibility for the crap they sell the consumer.

[UnrivaledShogun]

I dont understand whats all the hate for Vista is about. If you get the updates, use a decent computer hardware, and enough common, Vista is great. As far as overall looks and flashiness, I think Vista is the best looking Windows ever.

[Deokishisu]

I feel sorry for all the people that have XP and want to upgrade to 7.

[Bob543733465]

i still got xp :-(

[NR600]

Microsoft should refund our money for buying Vista. Win 7 should be free to upgrade from crappy Vista.

[TreyLutrash]

Could someone answer a dumb question for me?

If I upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 will I still have this crappy Vista or will it overwrite it?

Does it just add onto Vista or (hopefully) destroy it?

[UnrivaledShogun]

@TreyLutrash

You can have both Vista and 7 if you wanted. If you upgrade to 7, you will only have 7. Vista will be gone, but all your files and programs will be transfer unto 7. This is not possible if youre upgrading from with Windows XP because XP and 7 are not as compatible

[TreyLutrash]

Thanks

I'm not impressed with Vista. I think it's just me 2. XP worked great after sp2, so I'm hoping 7 will too

[jonvanflan]

Yeah... as a Windows user since 3.11, I realized you can't upgrade to windows on the day of the release. You at least have to wait for SP1. Early adopters are really just phase 2 beta testers. This is why after 25 years of using a PC, I switched to a Mac, and I love it! To put this in context, I own an iPod and don't think it's that great (too reliant on iTunes), which prevented me from switching to a Mac. Macs are great, the OS is efficient, and you actually get more for your money.

[TreyLutrash]

I actually started to buy a Mac recently and I still don't know why I didn't. I built my last machine. It had an old AMD processor and only 1 gig of ram with XP on it. It ran faster than my new machine with a duo core, 8 gigs of ram with Vista

[bizzyb0ne017]

because MACS SUCK

[bizzyb0ne017]

No, you actually massively over pay. You get far less bang for your buck with macintosh.

[mrbeydoun]

man just stik with xp

[CamiloSanchez1979]

All of you obviously work for Microsoft..

[Jeffs2001]

I have been using Win 7 since May, it has only crashed once, and I think it was my fault. All you people out there who hated Vista, give this one a chance. Win 7 is the best MS OS ever.

[dan8310x1]

What is that multi-touch interface he is using on the HP laptop? Im running Win7 and have never seen that before...? (Refer to 2:06)

[UnrivaledShogun]

@dan

Well you want be able to use that tough interface on Win7 unless you have a computer with the touch-screen feature. Hardware and Software must be there.

[ndyt]

Win 7 = Visa SP2 :P

the i7 and i5 chips are not cheaper then core 2 chips! what is he smoking!?!? The motherboards for them are still expensive too!

[TheComputerMaster]

hmmm vista 7 :D

[Nizm0350z]

buying Vista was the worst mistake I ever made

[CamiloSanchez1979]

They used to say wonders about Vista ..so we'll see

[MicroHive]

Been using Windows 7 since April and I must say that it has been the best OS released to date.

Enjoy your copy. :P

[superstardrogba]

windows 7 the most powerful windows yet....

i love windows se7en

[Hactormax]

Windows 7 is the best...

I love Windows.....

[pqse77]

Yup, Windows is awesome, and Windows 7 is the best release.
