What don't you like about Windows 7?

i hate paying for it every couple years. 2 7ultimates at over 300 clams a pop sucks. The family pack of Home premos was much more reasonable. The Vistas Ultis were expensive too. A family pack of Win8 Ultis would be handy, just sayin.

Don't buy Ultimate then? And its three years when a new version is suppose to come out and you do not have to buy the newest version when it comes out.

To add onto logicearth's response. A family pack would make more sense, with HOME Premium/Basic versions rather than Ultimate since, well, not many home users really NEED Ultimate.

Windows 7 is just a toy for me. Linux is where it is at. (and yes it will play games too) I don't like it. I like to be able to reconfigure my kernel so that I don't have things in it like support for a 14k modem and text to speech.

The speech to text really reallly rreeeeaaaalllllyyyyy stinks! lol! Linux has better stuff, but then they have like 12,000 programmers working on it so it is bound to be better.

And if you don't like the latest Linux release wait a month or two and something new will be released in another distrobution.

Then why in the world are you here? To troll? Maybe you should go back to your linux forum?

As usual the troll got it backward.

Linux is the toy.

Windows 7 is far superior to any Linux distro.

Linux has no place here or on any desktop.

Troll someplace else and leave the adults alone.

Because I will have to have Microsoft windows operating systems for school, and I am trying to find out what is myth and what is real.

BTW if I was trolling...

Successful Troll is successful. LMAO!

If you really wish to learn about Windows 7, you are in the right place and are welcome here. I suggest you rethink your attitude though and chill out or you won't last long.

The only thing I dont like with 7 is the only thing I didnt like about any windows OS; As you install and uninstall programs, it gets slower and slower from ghost folders, blank user options, and usless registry entries. That may be the only thing I dont like.

Those do not cause it to slow down.

When you uninstall programs, you should use Revo (the free version works only wth x86 program files) to get rid of all the registry entries and files that the uninstaller leaves behind. But you may still end up with a few .dlls that linger.
But those are not really causing a slowdown. The problem is probably with the disk and possible fragmentation and/or just more stuff so that the arm has to travel further thus increasing access time. A similar slowdown is not noticeable with an SSD.
