PC - Who got Windows 7? - View Post

Windows 7 is apparently what Vista should have been.... or I heard someone else describing it as "Vista on speed, with a make-over"

I am currently on XP, but I am getting a new laptop sometime soon... unfortunately I ordered it about a week before they started putting Windows 7 in (I thought it wasn't coming out till February!) but I do at least get a free upgrade which I will be doing as soon as possible because I have sampled Vista on my sisters laptop and wasn't keen.

Oh, and those of you still on XP, I don't think you can upgrade directly to Windows 7, you need a clean install. (I imagine if you put a W7 disc in it should explain what to do, but you never know)

I have the RC, will upgrade to the the normal before the RC runs out.

However yes, 7 is a vista on speed, but not a make over. A quick view into the properties tab shows that it they just changed the view properties. Since i thought 7 looked like Ass, I changed it back to look like vista. There is absolutly no difference between the 2 other then speed and a few menu options such as how the UAC looks.
