I haven't tested Win7 out yet. But ever since I have had this computer with Vista Ultimate...I have been desperately watching the Win 7 site and reading the testing lol

No, it isn't gonna be Vista. Microsoft has had a complete nightmare with this OS. Yes, some people are able to work with Vista and get it tweaked out and it runs great.

Others, like me, have spent way too many man hours trying to "fix" all the stupid stuff on it to get it to run...only to still have problems. My only guess is that different people have different software programs running, and/or different network configs (what a nightmare vista is for networking), etc.

Anyway, whether a person likes Vista or not...nobody can deny it has been a bigger PR nightmare than Millenium was. Too quirky. And most of the cool shit that they had in the Longhorn Beta of Vista was taken out because it didn't work right.

As I understand it, Win 7 is gonna be stripped of a lot of fat. And will be what Vista should have been: XP on steroids. At least I hope so.
