Has anybody here tried Windows 7?

Does it give any advantages over Vista? Although I suppose anything
would because it's such a dog.

Have they cleaned up home networking which has too many deficiencies
in Vista? Like networked printers identified internally by IP address
not URL so you have to deinstall and reinstall if they get assigned
different IP addies? I ended up needing fixed IP addresses for
everything otherwise computers and networked devices would get lost if
things were powered back on in a different order.

They also need to clean up recovery of programs with open files when a
network connection is dropped and recovered.
I must answer your question with another question.....

Have you ever seen a Micro$oft product that is ready for sale on the
first 3 versions?

Why put yourself through the torture of being a Micro$oft alpha tester
when you can wait a year or two until the other bleeding-edge fanbois
have gotten at least the major bugs to the point where it's moderately
stable?

You can't help it when it comes with the machine.

You can't install an operating system?

Idiot.

Oh, I'm sorry, If I knew you were intellectually disabled I
wouldn't have made fun of your inability to install an O/S.

Is your brain damage congenital or were you dropped on your head?

This time around I
had to replace a PC that came with ME and got upgraded to XP before it
died, and also a laptop when the previous one with XP's mother board
failed.

You make it sound like operating systems are hardwired and you need
a technician to upgrade your software.

Hardly, moron.


Do you mean you are hardly a Moron or you are a Moron who took it hard?


I was installing operating systems almost 40 years ago

And you still haven't finished! B^D


Perhaps you should have tried putting one in a computer
instead of stuffing floppy disks up your arse.

father was still in diapers.


I guess that stops him stuffing floppy disks up his arse..

....it must have been your mother that taught you.



Notice how WinXPSP3 runs for weeks, now, without crashing...instead of
hours....(c;]

They still haven't cleaned up their Vista networking which has some
pretty basic problems.

I know one site which ran Vista on 450 machines for six months before
deciding they would rather put their head in a microwave, and
backed out every machine and now run XP again.

In my view Microslop should be liable for costs.

Their days are numbered ever since Red Flag Linux appeared.

Naturally the Chinese would not run any government or
business apps on such a fragile platform with crap
security.. (at the least they would suspect CIA backdoors,
although I can't imagine Microslop being that competent)

So once the Chinese went Linux, it is just a matter of time
before they dominate the software distros, just as they
will dominate the hardware market.
