Windows 7 Reviews?
Was wondering if anyone here has loaded Windows 7 onto their computer. Like most people, not really a big fan of Vista. And, Windows 7 was supposed to fix many areas people didn't like about Vista.

Re: Windows 7 Reviews?
I've had it for a while, personally I don't like Windows Vista, from
the visual to the functional, it is really slow and not very user
friendly.
To tell you the truth I'm not sure if Windows 7 actually fixes any
Vista errors, what I can tell you is that it is more stable, a lot
faster even in very small PC's , and the interface is really user
friendly. Aero works much better on Windows 7 than Vista. Ever since
I've changed it I haven't had any issues with drivers or programs. In
my opinion together with XP it's the best OS that Microsoft has
released.

Sounds good. Yeah, when I said it fixes some things, I meant more of the visual aspects, not necessarily fixing errors. Did you actually purchase it or download it from a torrent site?

I think is very good. I have it on a 3 years old laptop and it works very good.
No driver issues, just small problems with old games I still like to play.

Re: Windows 7 Reviews?
One question... is there a way to install Windows 7 without having to reinstall all your current programs and files? That's a pain in the ass I'd rather avoid.

Re: Windows 7 Reviews?
i just installed windows7 and works great.
i also find it a little more responsive and faster even on my machine which is a few years old.
i was also using vista ultimate and have upgraded to win7 to test it out before i do a clean reformat.
i like the taskbar functions alot as everything you need is there especially as i use the explore function alot.
if you upgrade from vista then you have the option of keeping all your files intact, if however you decide you dont like it and go back to vista you will have to clean boot and you will lose everything.
apart for that i think if you want to try it then go for it. its alot better than i was expecting
