Windows 7 Ultimate fucking rocks!!!

its great if you are coming from vista.
decent, but still uses more resources if you are moving from XP, even with all the sevices and fluff tweaked down. |

I'll stick with XP for awhile. I hate trying new shit, specially microsoft products
|
I have 7 on my new laptop, and I think its great so far.
But I didn't really have any major problems with Vista... |
I havn't retarted my computer since the first I intalled and updated it
Looks just like vista though, can't really tell the dif |

I have installed 7 but I haven't had a ton of time to play with it as I got busy and have mainly got work done on my mac. What are some of the key tweaks for 7?
|
windows 7 is a true rocking upgrade from MSFT. Ran it since the beta without any hiccups, went to the RC candidate with no problems and then the full version. no glitches or issues. Huge improvement
|
I'm digging it.
|
i'm not sure there is a point in upgrading to ultimate at this time.. are there any other benefits of getting ultimate than cheaper edition besides those that are listed in MS' version comparison chart?
only thing i needed from vista ultimate was remote desktop connection - if thats built-in in cheaper versions in 7 i'm sure i can live without the ultimate package |
I have home and it has remote desktop
|
Anyone runs the 64bit version?
|
i usually upgrade every second verson of windows so I guess I'm due as i'm still using XP
|
yeah, I got a few copies for the office. The funny thing is I really wanted to use the XP mode on my Dell laptop and it turns out it isn't compatible. I don't have the Virtualization Techonology, lol.
At least the computers are running well now... :) |
yeah 7 is cool :)
|
7 is good looks like but i hope it will not fail :)
|
I still have XP pro on my main computer..:1orglaugh I already have everything setup to work efficiently, so I'm not gonna start messing with my computer that keeps my biz going.
I used Windows 7 ultimate on a friend's PC and thought it was awesome though. I'm thinking of building a new PC and without a doubt it will have Win 7 ultimate. :thumbsup |
I was using XP Home on my old Athlon 2600 /2GB Ram up until a few days ago when I upgraded to Windows 7. I have to say M$ have done a great job with this OS and it's definitely worth the pain of upgrading.
It's reinvigorating my aging PC and it's now a pleasure to use again!! |
overall it's really nice but there are things I don't like. The TurnOff/Restart Button with the little arrow beside. Sometimes I hit the false side of the button. The alt-tab navigation was also better in XP in my oppinion. Anyway it's better than vista :winkwink:.
|
will need to try it out soon
|
I am waiting to get a cracked version. I won´t pay microsoft that money to fix the shit that they sold (vista)
|
It's great, but it's not like I'm having any problems with Vista either :2 cents:

XP was great. But unfortunately Adobe didn't support it for 64 bit stuff. So when I went to Vista it was purely to get the power of all 16 gigs of ram I have in my machine to work with Photoshop and Premiere. And Windows 7 works a LOT better than Vista.
It's worth the upgrade just to get away from the quirky networking of Vista alone. Nothing more frustrating than having to tune your network card down to 100 MB HALF because Vista would just randomly disconnect you if you tried to run it full blast. Now I run my network card at 1 GB FULL and I get twice the internet speeds. Machine now boots up twice as fast too. XP was awesome for the last 8 years, and I woulda stayed with it too...but I do a lot of intense stuff on my machine and need the full power of it. And if software companies are moving forward then so do I. Now if all I had to do was surf GFY like some of the "players" on here...then I might stick with XP for forever. lol |
The 64bit version of Windows 7 is great :thumbsup
|
Ubuntu.... boots faster, shuts down faster, will run longer, is more stable, almost no virus/spyware issues, and has more kick ass developed FREE software at your finger tips than Windows could ever dream of.
Oh, and it's free online or $25 in your local store, with free updates. |

Moved from XPpro to 7pro, love it, didn't even need any driver CDs, it found everything online in a matter of seconds.. The only change I made was to apply the old win2k look skin, I don't like the blurry-transparent window edges etc
|
xp por vida

Graphic creation wise, if you use Photoshop, Gimp is it's twin brother. Video wise, you just need to learn the software, it's more on par with a Mac with about 10,000 more 'free' software additions you can try. As for pretty GUI, you can make it look like windows, other os's, totally unique, customize it yourself. It's not limited. Windows is playing catch up to Linux.. not the other way around. Other than in the game department, which is closing the gap quickly. |

I can't see why anyone would run anything other than 64bit these days. I've been using 64 exclusively for 2 years, and it hasn't shut me out of anything in the software world. The only things its done is allow me to run more ram and have faster graphics programs, especially 3D stuff. My laptop came with 64 bit Win 7, and I think that'll be the case for a lot of new systmes that are shipping. Now's the time for 64, don't be afraid of it. |
I cant wait until I get my next computer to have it installed from the factory
