HEY!!! Change that signature. I punched my monitor!  :whack:  :admonish:

Back to topic. I'll never do that. I think that Windows XP is the best even nowadays. Well, not better than AmigaOS, but this is another story. :-D


I agree
A new MS product means slower and more bloated than the last

Sticking with XP  :-D

The beta download is "Ultimate" which AFAIK, has an 1GHz CPU, 1GB RAM requirement (plus dedicated video to use Aero).

1Gb just to run an OS is unjustifiable.

...MS wants to wash its hands clean of that name so as not to deter people wanting to shift from XP


If that is really the case, they may have a hard time selling Win 7 to people bought Vista. Perhaps they will do a discounted upgrade.


no actually there are a lot of people so disappointed with Vista that they can't wait to get their hands on Win 7 so that they can get rid of Vista.  W


I know a lot of people who have switched back to XP from Vista
