Intel Says Windows 7 Is Superior to XP SP3, Upgrades 100,000 PCs.

Some of you might not remember this, but Intel was an illustrative example of corporations that turned their back on Windows Vista in 2007, as opposite to AMD, which was quick to embrace Windows XP’s successor. Not the same can be said when it comes down to the latest iteration of the Windows client. Intel has assessed Windows 7 extensively, comparing it with Windows XP SP3, and found that the successor of Vista was superior. And nothing speaks better than Intel’s stance on Windows 7 than the fact that the CPU maker upgraded in excess of 100,000 machines from XP SP3 starting in early 2010.

Well since intel says its better....

I do overall agree though. There are a few annoyances but I will say i've been enjoying 7 since making the switch in January.

Vista SP2 is superior to XP SP3, nevermind 7, which is blatantly obvious.
