[User]

i dont think my 2nd comp is powerful enough for testing win7 and i dont really wanna start mongoing on my main comp.

or do you think 1gb mem is enough, i dont quite remember the other speccs, just a usual comp from 03-04

sure they say 1gb is req but im asking from someone who knows more than microsoft, the user. so anyone tested it yet?

this next version of windows is not enough different from vista, seems like all functions can be adjusted to be similar to 7
nice try Microsoft, but you wont get me

explain me how this is windows no 7?

Windows 3.1
win 95 (4)
win 98 (5)
win xp (6)
win vista (7)

that's atleast 8 not counting business versions like 2000 or stuff like ME and other special versions.

Win 95 is version 4 yes, but so is 98. XP is 5, Vista is 6.

With Windows 7 set for release in Dec. 09, Microsoft is getting ready with their free upgrade program, which allows Vista users to switch to Windows 7 when it arrives. The folks at TechARP have consistently scored accurate scoops on Microsoft software releases. They have now revealed Microsoft's upgrade plans, schedules and even screenshots of the upgrade process.

Windows > Mac, don't even argue, because majority rules and it will permanently be this way.
