Besides if you are a using Win Vista Ultimate and XP in the Same computer, winth Win 7 Ultimate you can use the Win XP Mode feature that allows you to install a version of XP with out a disk partition. It’s a really cool feature, you will be able to test in both systems at once.

In definitly Win 7 works perfectly I just upgraded from my old Win XP 2005, besides I have the theory that you can do anything in any system, no matter what you are.

You could be an Engenieer, Doctor, Musician, Programmer, Designer (that is what I am ), any professional carrer you can Imagine. The creativity, the potential and the work comes from us, not from the tool, just I said any system, any computer is just a TOOL nothing else.

So many could think that Mac is better than Windows, or Linux (any of it) is better than both, the true is that any of those systems is only a Tool to do our taskes easier.

I’m a Graphic Designer and I use Windows for do my job, and I have done my job at the same time and the same way in Mac. We build them, we use them, we work them; but they wont control us.

Best regards to everyone.

The best reason to upgrade to Windows 7 is that it is completely free, like all previous Windows. I don’t upgrade to Linux just so I can say I am using Windows for free.

I came to this site to read Andrew’s article on Windows 7 as I am running XP both at home and at work. I didn’t change to Vista at home because I had doubts, nor at work because my excellent IT Manager also had doubts (we have around 70 users most of whom have very limited expertise beyond what they need to do their jobs – which is fine). Thank you for a useful article Andrew – I may make the move to 7 but there’s no rush.

I am no computer expert – I build my own home hardware but that’s only so I can have what I need in terms of spec and know that the components are from names I recognise. A computer is just a tool that I use.

I am just astonished at the almost religious fervour of some of the posts on a subject as mundane as operating systems. They remind me of the people who call at your door, wanting to convert you to their beliefs, who are certain you are bound for damnation if you don’t. In a way it must be reassuring to be so certain you are right but I’m afraid I don’t see what’s to get so excited about. Perhaps I’m getting old

Need to be honest, I’m a Mac but I have installed Windows 7 on my Windows computer and it is a vast improvement on Vista. Credit given where due, Window’s now have an OS to be proud of (at last).

I just think the rivalry between Mac and Windows users should just stop by now. Its really getting old. I am tired of watching those pointless Apple commercials worrying too much about what the other guy is doing wrong and not saying what they are doing right.

I have been using windows for the majority of my life and have recently been using Ubuntu for some of my work. I have been looking at the Macbook pro 13in. for its portability and battery life. Point being, there is no need to “convert” to a single OS. Just use what you works for you, if its a mac… pc… linux… all of them… who cares, its what works for you.

mac 4evah! microsoft is so deep in their own mantra at this point that if you don’t like windows now you never will… its always going to be more of the same.

but to its credit, for 20 years it fueled the massive increase in desktop computing and a generation of developers grew up i’m sure using at least a few microsoft tools.

now that systems like mac and especially linux have caught up in terms of aesthetic appeal and desktop usability, windows is dead in the water. linux was designed to run the internet, mac is based on the bsd kernel — and with applications moving more frequently to the web or cloud or whateverhaveyou — its only logical that the systems running the gig are the best for using it.

i’ll also add that microsoft has pissed off a ton of people over the years, they haven’t exactly made nice with the community until recent years, so, some of the backlash from the community is definitely motivated by that factor… i mean come the f*** on, they gave us internet explorer… how much time have you wasted developing for internet explorer specifically… bastages.
