What do you guys think about: Windows 7 ?

[Melvin]

Hey all,

I want to start a discussion about Windows 7.
What do you guys think about it and expect from it?

I got the newest Beta here on dvd. Bug free and fully working as my uncle tested it.
Im going to install it tomorrow and tell you guys what i think of it.

What do you guys think? 

[James_Alterlis]

More info plz? 

Newest version of Windows?
New than Vista?

[Joey_DeRossi]

When Vista came out I sticked with XP because of the bad feedback.
Now that Windows 7 is about to come I'm certainly installing it, you won't need a high level computer to work on it, it's lighter than Vista, etc.
Good things - Is all I hope from Windows 7

I've got the current newest version (Windows 7 Release Candidate 1.0 ) and i have to say i really like the way it's re-organised.
Also very good to use when coming from XP, and Media Center runs as smooth i've never seen before. Fully supports HD Graphics... What could we wish more  :roll:

[cDa]

Well i hate that Grouping of apps, as for bugs stil pretty buggy.. when i tried to delete files sorted by size it still found those files in search.. Search doesnt even understand wildcards, oh and yeah lets not forget a big blue ord with red ERROR where start should be after search got bugged..     So all in all, still not good, improvements are made since first beta relase but still not stable to go to full production...

[rJCaiG]

Abosolutely horrible, hate it with every bone in my body, wish it was never brought it...
1. No way to uninstall it
2. Grouping of apps
3. Ugly
4. Slow
5. Microsoft
I could go on, but i'll leave it at that

Argh, Giac, Now im scared to install it. It would be able to uninstall it with formatting right :-O
I will try, It can only be better then my Windows xp 32 bit.

My pc is too good for windows xp 32 bit i guess:

E8500 3,16ghz
260GTX 896mb videocard
6gb ddr2 800mhz
500gb hdd
22" HD Acer screen

g15 and g5 :$

[rJCaiG]

Yeah, I had to format the partition for it to go away :|

Why do you have Windows XP 32 bit on 6GB RAM?

You realize you're only using like 3GB RAM on XP 32 bit?

Get Vista 64 bit.. :\

Man you're dumb.

Windows 7 is the latest OS from Windows. It's currently in beta stage, and Melvin is thinking of using it.


From what I've heard; it's meant to be better than vista. Although it seems it has quite a lot of bugs at the moment.

[cDa]

Melvin on that system i strongly suggest Win Vista 64 with sp1... Im having non so ever troubles with it,and works like a charm

You have 6 GB of DDR2 and you use a 32-bit OS?

[Melvin]

Yea i was dumb with 32 bit :P.

What i've done, I opened the friggin case, Threw in the CD, and i Installed Windows 7!

OMG, This is not normal how nice it is. OMG, I will never get a other OS. I suggest everyone to use Windows 7. Its smooth, Really fast, Starting and shutting down my pc takes less then 4 seconds.
Its fast. Games got more FPS.
Jesus fuck, Why were i scared to install it. Its b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l  :cool:

That was my review LOL

Really you guys, Ive got no problems that its a beta. I used the Final beta so this one can be compared to the one what is getting released.

Omg its so nice.  :banana:

1. It's a beta/RC. That's a duh before you install it.
2. Agreed, but it's a feature.
3. User opinion.
4. Your system just sucks.
5. What's wrong with them? If you don't like MS, then don't test their software.

You have 6 GB of DDR2 and you use a 32-bit OS?

It'll still work, depending on the OS he's using. Some 32-Bit OS'es can read up to 128GB of RAM, and others can only see up to 2GB, 4GB, etc.

@Wash: XP x86 uses up to 4GB by the way, not 3GB.

[Roadkill]

Windows 7 is great, light operating system but it does have a LOT of bugs as it is in beta stages. The fact that Microsoft are doing public beta testing shall help them resolve these bugs and glitches. So... I'm guessing that Windows 7 is going to be the best operating system released by Microsoft so far.

Don't be stupid and run it as your main OS. Run it in virtual PC until it is fully released.

[Melvin]

Dude, Im using it as my main OS now and ive got no problems with it.
Its light, Stylefull
Games run better with more FPS.
Why wait more months till it get released, This is nice.
