If for some reason you couldn't use Windows 7...

What would you do if you had to reformat your hard drive SO many times just because it got infected by some malware which none of your anti-malware software could fine? Would you switch OS- or just stay with Windows?

I would go take it to a professional thats more qualified and if he couldn't fix anything well then I would change hard drives. Actually changing the hard drive might be cheaper than taking it to some guy. 60$ for a 500gb WD

I would change my user habits.

if i couldn't run 7 I'd probably go back to Vista. either that or I'd try out the KDE environment in Linux.

IF I couldn't use win 7, I would use punch cards before going to vista. Obviously not a vista fan boy. XP pro sp2 maybe, ubuntu, perhaps.

Back to XP SP3 without even thinking twice about it.

 

[gamepoint]

what is so special in xp sp3?

Nothing has to be special about it, if it works why not? Its that simple.

 

[dajogejr]

Yep. Solid, it works.
7 is too new to say it's MS' best OS yet. Don't get me wrong, it's great...just too new.

XP is tried and true.

Windows 3.1. for me Oh the excitement of being able to use True type fonts for the first time. And color too! Wow

 

[Lebon14]

Vista. Always prefered it over XP.

My second choice is Ubuntu Linux. Its yummy.
Provides a very nice GUI, solid bulid and still... I dont have to pay for it.

The best linux distros that are like Windows are Linux Mint and Zorin OS:

Zorin OS is the most Windows-like free Linux OS:
Zorin OS - Home

Linux Mint is a mixture of Linux and Windows 'feel:'
Main Page - Linux Mint

I've voted for XP as i jumped directly to Seven....but i would surely have use Vista otherwise!

Hi there
I'd probably "Go Busking" -- I'd make more money these days that's for sure.

Cheers

Both Zorin and Mint are based on Ubuntu, and as Arc said, why use the same look and feel when you can have something different

Hasta la vista baby.

I never had any issues with it, even pre sp1 I found it good.

XP - R.I.P
