Maaan, I see you don’t get my point, and that is making me happy(:.
Let’s roll back.
First, I need to buy a new computer, preferably with “Designed for W7” sticker on it.
As you forgot to mention, not all today-in-function PC’s have hardware compatible with W7, or meet the requirements.
Then, if it’s not in the price range of my new toy, a W7 licence.
Then, to put aside all my business-bread-making-software that “no run” in W7.
And finally I’m able to enjoy Aero “pest” theme, and a so called new security (not proven by time yet).
All that, and a shiny, incomplete, non-standard-proven browser, just 'coz it’s doing nice marketing.
I still give it
And I see a lot of businesses just rushing into it, as history tell them to be 100% confident in Microsoft products. Never mind 95, 98, ME, Vista. Oh, and IE6.
Vista was the new 95. What that says about 7?
I don’t mind upgrading and updating, just I’m not too happy buying “bling” instead of “stone-cold reliable”.
Is Microsoft trying to start an Ivy club? Let’s look at the competition.
Google OS and not-so-pricy PC’s. That’s one way to go. Especially for business.
Kaspersky is opening the market for hardware antiviral protection. Still wanna rely on Microsoft for security? That’s another way to go. Especially since MS did not even try and make a really good anti-malware available for W7.
And finally, it’s so nice when they cut backward compatibility with each new OS that it makes me worm and fuzzy inside, just like when they hardcoded 10 maximum TCP/IP connection into XP SP3.
Oh, yeah, I’m going for the 7 Enterprise, as it’s offering what XP has, just with more money.
Make XP better, that should be their goal, for those poor *******s buying their OS’s, not lunch Vista and rip us off.
When you buy a stinky wormy salami do you eat it? Or do you ask for a refund and sue?
Run this on their new IE9 !
Yeah, sorry for the flames, but I thought ppl would be more “en-garde” regarding MS products, after all this years.
