Windows 7 --> good or bad
 

is Windows 7 going to be good or bad ?

Ballmer's Promise: Windows 7 'Best Version Of Ever'


Windows 7

Over the past few years, you've asked us to make some changes to Windows. We listened closely. Now it's time to share an early look at how we've used your feedback. Windows 7 is faster, more reliable, and makes it easier to do what you want. Both the everyday things and the killer "is that really possible?" things. Dig into this site to see what's coming. And remember?this is just a preview. There's more to come.

Want to try the Beta? Subscribe to the team RSS feed to be alerted as soon as the Beta becomes publicly available.

I heard nothing but good about it. I'd definitely buy it when it comes out. Its much faster than Vista.

Im pissed to try the beta you have to be using fucking vista.

I hope I'm never unfortunate enough to try it

Try streaming live video over a router, it seems choppy. I've tried it on two computers. One high end, one lower end computer over the same connection.

With Vista, the video would always play without loss on both computers. I know windows 7 is beta, so I don't expect a perfect product.

Hope it's better than Vista!

installing it this weekend, already have the iso and technet license

no you dont

lol

I'm switching to Mac after being a PC junky since 1994.

XP was indeed good.
My new notebook had Vista on it and I was not satsified at all.
I dont think windows 7 will be much better. They should raise the first child before
setting up another one ;)

Good bye windows Vista hello hello Windows 7

More money to be made, they will put some crap in W7 just ot make W8 and get mor emoney

50/50 at the moment

XP pro x64 forever :)

win95 does all i ever wanted to do

oh really? http://blog.wired.com/business/2009/...-get-your.html

isnt there a less then bad because this product is gonne be worse

Looking forward to try it out... in 2011 :thumbsup

Too early to really know.

Can't wait to try it. Enough with the haters.

Maybe when Steve Jobs dies the Macfags will shut up.

I liked Vista as I didn't have any issues.I'll probably try it out too

I like Windows naming conventions' consistency.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh "MacFags" thats great

Yeah, really. :winkwink:

From the page you posted:

Give it a try tootsie.

My bad I didnt read that first time. Im getting old lol

It's a fairly easy and quick install. I haven't done anything more than that, but no issues yet.

Gonna try and install it on a Mac this weekend for shits and giggles.

I don't get why people hate on Vista. I've had one bluescreen since I got it, and I've been running it about 9 or 10 months now. Just shell out the few bucks to get enough ram to run it with ease and it's a treat.

They say it's good.

i've heard it's pretty good via the geek/computer forums. I've been building a new system so i've been real interested hearing what the those chaps have to say about it. So far it's been surprisingly good. But if you plan on installing early, remember...it's a beta.

I mean i'm gonna have to at least give it a try.

lol... you can't even get to the site today.

to many bugs at the microsoft website...lol it's not the traffic, google is taking it all away from microsoft and yahoo

i thinks is better as xp ( with some driver issue's, but is a beta doode )

Um that's why it's called a BETA.

i always get amused when people bitch about betas being buggy.

Win95 was "Windows 4.0" during development, so it has to be....

2.x
3.x

Windows 7 will be the best version of windows for a desktop

i've been using it on my main system for about 2 months now. its much more stable than vista was. the same system i used to have blue screens 2-3 times a week due to issues with video card drivers.

so down on MS products not sure if i will try

i still use XP on an old sony vaio, which i love. its time to change computer though. thinking about mac. don't know yet.

Hopefully, it would be good and beat the fucking Vista.

So how much memory are we going to need to run that? It looks fast, but how much they running on those machines. Vista was a memory hog.

You do know that the beta expires in August.. don't ya?

Good - Try it

I can't wote for nothing. This poll sux because there is no "i don't know" option.

P.S. According to what I heard, Windows 7 will be almos the same useless shit as Vista. But let's hope it won't happen.

You both are wrong. There are 2 ABSOLUTELY different families of windows:
1) MS-DOS-based ones: 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 95/98/98se/Me
2) NT family: NT 3.x, NT 4.0., 2000 (NT 5.0), XP (NT 5.1), XP64 Pro/Windows Server 2003 (NT 5.2), Vista/Windows Server 2008 (NT 6.0), 7 (NT 6.1)

:2 cents:

I've been using it on my laptop for some time now and I don't really know if I would call it good or bad. I guess it's just OK.
