Title: Windows 7 Good/Bad
Post by: Sports1 on November 05, 2009, 06:47:33 PM
I was wondering how good Windows 7 is, I don't really want to get it but it sounds like I may need to for school.  I need some feedback on how good it is.

It's an upgraded Vista. If you liked Vista, you'll love 7. Simple as that. Ask Lichig0 for a personal opinion.

Good, especially when paired with Firefox instead of IE 8.0. D;

I have no worries on that as I can get it from my school for $50.00.

An actual install disc or just an upgrade disc?

It's leaps and bounds better than Vista.
Get it, you won't regret it. It uses less resources, runs faster, cool features...:3

The way I understand it (from Friday)  it would be an install disc.

@Silverhawk79- I will sooner or later, I hope later.  I don't feel like messing around with an upgrade right now.

From what I've heard: Runs like XP, looks like Vista.

Though I think it looks better than Vista :3

My dad has it and I saw it running on a little laptop at Best Buy today.  I'm going to miss the Windows at the bottom as bars, but I think it will be worth it if it runs better than Vista.

You can make the taskbar operate like Vista's.  Bars and all.

It's very good from the Beta.
