I notice the difference for the systems I'm running right now. I have two of the same systems and one is running windows7 and the other is vista. 7 does a much better job of handling system resources and graphics then Vista.

Windows7 is a better OS.

I haven't tried windows 7 (maybe I would if it wasn't $300). I'm really impressed with Linux's Ubuntu though. It plays games much faster then on my windows xp.

This was better.
