He has a few good reviews on it...surely it can't be worse than VISTA!!Has anyone tried this yet?Mac nazis can hush up!

i have problems in win7 with "werconcpl.dll" anybody know what to do?

:-"> would like to listen it in Thai :-P

got it for 4 months now and it is ok, thinking about going back to XP though

I think I'll keep running XP at least until Office 2010 comes out. I really don't feel like hunting down all the drivers they undoubtedly didn't include.

it's much faster, prettier and i am happy with it :-)

Why go back at all? Why not have a dual boot with XP-Vista and 7? I think 7 is very good indeed but while vista is very bad overall it does have some very good thing built in = moviemaker is very good whereas 7 does not have it and the version you download is not very good.

Most hardrives are over 80 GB now so no reason not to just partition the drive and have multiple OS on your Computer. Just my few cents worth.

I'm sticking with Xp. It does all I need for now.

A few weeks, back IBM and Canonical (the lead sponsor of Ubuntu Linux) announced a plan to deliver Linux desktops and software to Africa. At the time, I questioned why the offer wasn't being made available in the U.S.

That changes today as IBM and Canonical are now announcing the launch of Linux and cloud-based desktop software in the U.S.

The effort was originally announced more than a year ago, in August of 2008 as the Microsoft-Free PC effort. The basic idea is to have an Linux OS, with IBM smart client applications called Open Collaboration Client Solution software (OCCS)(Lotus Symphony and Notes) for enterprise apps.

The solution that has now been announced for the U.S, leverages the IBM Client for Smart Work which includes the same set of IBM's collaboration software. As to why IBM is marketing the solution to the U.S now, the answer is simple: Windows 7.

IBM and Canonical in their press release have stated that the cost of migrating to Windows 7 will be as much as $2,000 for most PC users, with hardware accounting for much of the expense. Linux (and specifically Ubuntu) together with the IBM software is according to the two partners, cheaper to deploy.

"If a company is a 'Windows shop,' at some point it will need to evaluate the significant costs of migrating its base to Microsoft's next desktop and bolstering its defenses against virus and other attacks," said Bob Picciano, general manager, IBM Lotus in a statement. "American businesses have asked for a compelling alternative and today we are delivering IBM Client for Smart Work in the U.S."

i'm sticking with windows 95. haven't had any problems with it for 20 years so can't see any need to change.

oh, i forgot to mention that i'm an old fuddy duddy with one foot in the grave.

actually i've got xp and i will change when windowns 7 update 223 comes out

Well said Bushi...Im the same. I really dont need my PC's to be doing anything else right now.

I think it will be many years before I move from XP on my production PC.

It's worse than Vista? Oh my.....then it probably a disaster.....my my.......XP is the best

johnno...windows 95 for 20 years?!

woah!!

I am getting confused with all these technical answers lets get back to basics. Which one finds the best porn ????

Going to give it a try as i just bought a mac for my music and design work anyway so I will be using my pc just for net and media.

MAC

I've been using it for a few months and I really like it. Haven't had any problems/compatibility issues, installs like a dream, software runs perfectly and it's got some nice new features. Pretty happy.

My son tells me it's better than Vista but he does work for i Apple,hehe so he is biased.

My version of Windows 7 is great. I can honestly say I have had zero problems with it.

Ofcourse what I have not told you, is that it's still in the shop 555

Why would anyone want to pay for a bad OS when they can get a good one for free?

And who would want to risk their data, time, and bank accounts by using Windows in the first place?

;-)

No one here has ran out or rushed the shops for it.Think they all got burnt with Vista and by the looks of data companies are turning to Macs.

If i had to run windows i would certainly upgrade to 7 just to be more secure.. XP has many holes and exploits it's a danger to all that use it. 7 seems to be a nice product and certainly a worthy upgrade if you have a newish machine.

nothing more to say

Def better than Vista.

Apple made a great move with the iPhone winning droves of people over to the easy of use.

I have been looking for a tablet that is able to do all I need, lightweight, wireless and easy-to-use but due to the sluggish and outdated Windows OS, none of the PC-models really caught on.

Mac only needs to put its iPhone in a bigger form factor, add some extra battery and processing power and the first version of their tablet should be ready to ship. It already has a great user interface, touchscreen and has thousands of developers that will build interesting applets to sit on your tablet. I can hardly wait.
