Windows 7

Did anyone rush out to get it? What do you think? I have Vista at home and don't have any problems...but the early reviews of 7 look good and it's relatively cheap for an OS.

My last new OS was Snow Leopard. I'm gone and I ain't comin' back. I helped my ex with her computer and it was Vista. Seemed a lot like XP except for security warnings anytime I tried to change something. What's Windows 7's deal?

I'm sticking with Windows 3.1x. Didn't get W7 and I won't be unless I get a new PC which I am not. I have XP and I would need to buy a new PC because I don't think the current one would work on an upgrade.

Vista on my home desktop, Linux on everything else. I'm good.

My daughter's laptop had Vista on it, and we installed the Windows 7 RC over the summer. If you have Vista, it is well worth it - the laptop runs much faster now, and we don't even have the final version it. Upgrading from XP could be a dicier proposition. One would need to do a clean, fresh install since the XP code base is different than that of W7, and that could cause problems if you don't have installation disks for all of your programs.
