i seem to remember people saying the exact same thing about vista when that came out. If your expecting 7 to be far superior to vista atm then thats bad. Having said that. Compared to this stage at vista development 7 is a MASSIVE improvement over that. Give it time. Vista imho was not any good until at least service pack 1.
it's like every first,
not only an OS but Software, Hardware, Cars, Planes, TV's, Camera's, Rockets, you name it.
It's the price of innovation.
The first are seldomly the best, but it's the first step to better.
We seem to accept first version application flaws a lot easier than that of an OS.
There are hundreds of thousands different systems, setups and SW configs out there, which means there are billions of different variables.
One can't expect MS to have them all in house to test on.
That's where we come in.
When we get the well known message, "send this information to Microsoft" , let's all click it for a change.
That's the fastest way of getting things fixed.
XP took 9 years to become what it is today.
Quoted for truth.
Been using Windows 7 since Build 7000 as my main OS and comparing that experience with the Vista beta experience that I went through a few years ago. It almost feels like its a completely different company working on it. haha.
This is a classic Windows ME situation. Vista being ME that is and 7 being its savior, XP. :)
I'm happy with windows 7 and im not in no hurry for 8.
Okay some people took me a litte too seriously when I said where's Windows 8? It was taken to be a joke, but what someone said before could be correct. Some applications just aren't up to speed yet, and for that reason, that's why I'm having issues. I just have to be careful what I say here before I get slammed. In addition to that, I did state what issues I was having if you read what I wrote.
I have two computers that are exactly the same, one running Vista SP2 64-bit and Windows 7 64-bit, the one presented on July 22, 2009. As of right now, the Vista outperforms Windows 7. That's right now, and that's all I was trying to say. Hopefully as time goes by, it will improve, but it's far from being leaps and bounds better than Vista. I'll keep silent now. Thanks for the input.
Excuse me, but I understand perfectly. Maybe I should have used a better choice of words, but damn. Some of the people just takes things way too seriously. Windows 7 is the most stable OS, I never denied, but keep in the mind what that statement means. That's like saying this is the best E and J Brandy they've ever produced.
