Well, its a very early release and could go either way. They have a lot more registry entries to put in yet, and maybe a few more dll,s.

When I look back on my posts, I think I am giving the impression that I am anti 7. Far from it. I do believe some of the claims are exaggerated a little, but overall the next OS is shaping the right way.

ROFLMAO!

Hello everyone....

I believe an explanation is in order.

I had a lot of things starting at boot and that one got lost in the shuffle somehow. I never got the notice after I implemented that one until the next day. I made some registry changes and had to reboot and after the post I got that time. I made no changes to the time; it's exactly as it was listed when I got it.

I posted it here because I knew it would be good for a laugh; and it was.

Mine:

Dual boot, must have lost a second selecting OS

Nice time Smarteyeball, wish mine was that quick.

I was pleasantly surprised

It's still practically a 'fresh' installation which helps

So my Vista boot time is still the winner for either OS's
