What do you think of Windows 7?

[Schnookumnookum]

I'm getting a new PC tomorrow and It has Windows 7 on it. My computer now has XP, so I'm going straight from XP to Windows 7. I've never used Vista, but I've heard a lot of bad things about it. How does Windows 7 compare to XP and Vista?

 

[Numner]

Well I like it

 

[Smugleaf]

It's basically just a graphic overhaul of Windows XP, with some other extras. A lot better than Windows Vista.

I use XP, but my friend says Windows 7 is the best. Much better than Vista.

I'm using Windows 7 right now and I really like it.

 

[Schnookumnookum]

Okay, good. I can't wait to try it out tomorrow!

Kind of a dumb question, but I've seen the 32 bit and the 64 bit ones. Mine has the 64 bit, but what exactly is the difference between the two?

Oh yeah. Is Windows 7 the one where you can have a slideshow of pictures as your desktop wallpaper?

Basically Vista and XP had a baby that had all the good things of XP and the good things of Vista and took out at least 80% of the bad things. I enjoy mine very much.

It doesn't hold a candle to OS X Snow Leopard, but for Windows, it's one of their better operating systems.

Vista is so junky lol. I heard a lot of things about Windows 7. I hope it reaches your expectations.

Yes. And 64-bit is better.

As a Mac user, I only rarely use my PC any more to play on games and when I'm on it I don't really find it all that annoying, I actually quite like it, especially compared to the garbage Microsoft churns out and calls operating systems now (YES I'M TALKING TO YOU WINDOWS VISTA).

This.

Lol, I was waiting for the Mac users to post.

I still don't know whats wrong with Vista. Anyway, tried Windows 7 at a friends house, pretty nice.

The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer's processor (also called a CPU), handles information. The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system.

64 bit may be a little bit more pricey but is a good. At this moment I'm running Windows XP. I do plan on getting a new computer but at this time, no.

I got got a laptop with Windows 7, but I haven't used it much because I still have to back up all my data on the family computer. I haven't really noticed a difference thanks to how little I've used my laptop thus far. <=L
