You're making it sound like everyone has decided Windows 7 is what they are going to select when they buy a new PC, as if they have any choice at all, unless they buy an overpriced MAC.

Me? if so, not what i was going for. More so all the hacked copies
Nice to hear, i like this OS very much!
now i can't live without that window snapping feature where you drag a window to the side and it automatically fills half of your screen, also love being able to move a window while maximized... just moving around in this OS feels so fluid and natural :)

The snap feature is very useful (though I use the keyboard shortcuts rather than dragging them as I use a touchpad)
I miss it at college when backing up work to various drives.

OT: I changed over from Vista 64 to Windows 7 64 on this machine and I can hardly tell much of a significant difference aside from it being a little more responsive UI, faster booting and spiffy tweaks here and there like the application bar. Its just a refined Vista really not that I felt Vista was terrible, just a little rough. |
for average home use this is pretty much spot on. Where Vista really blew was any kind of business networking environment.
I still have Vista on my main PC, and Windows 7 on my HTPC since it's brand new. I like 7 better, but not enough to pay for an upgrade.
All I can say is...
Ka-ching

Networking huh? Maybe thats why I have never been able to get my Vista PCs to network/share files properly! 
Tease.
From what I know businesses do NOT upgrade straight away,l or even a year after a NEW OS is released, is this correct Squill?
100 million in 6 months is just ... wow.
You are right- most businesses don't tend to move to a new version of an OS straight away, and government departments certainly don't. Upgrading hundreds, potentially thousands of PCs isn't a trivial task, especially when you have to be certain that any legacy applications will work with the new OS. That's before you get to the cost as well- the main company I contract for would need to replace over a thousand PCs currently running XP, as they wouldn't be able to run Windows 7 satisfactorily.
