Its funny how the Apple fan boys are more than willing to pay money for what amounts an OS X service pack (e.g. 10.2 -> 10.3) but if Microsoft were to pull that crap everyone would be screaming bloody murder.

Windows 7 looks very VERY good. As far as it actually being reliable with programs and drivers etc. I'd say windows XP still > 7
I'm happy with my windows 7 though, A couple of nVidia crashes and Razer problems wouldn't make me go back to XP =D! |

I don't have any issues with 7, Vista would break every boot though...
Google loves you too. Your giving them free market research.

UAC is an annoying feature in Vista and it's still there in Win7. There's also some networking concerns with Vista/Win7 and XP machines as well. Sometimes an XP machine trying to access files shared on a Vista or Win7 machine will get a permissions error no matter what the share permissions are, and the fix is the same for both operating systems. I'd been trying to figure it out on my own Vista machines for awhile and had given up on it till we sold a Win7 machine to a customer that was having this issue and I finally figured out what it was, fixed it on their win7 machine, came home and fixed my Vista machine. The two OSes are extremely similar in my experience. Sorry for the rant, but I get asked about this daily, lol. |

Just type what you're looking for into the start menu, no need to look for anything.
