Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
does it actually make something like a laptop run more efficiently then it would on vista? i was told it didnt, but my i find some evidence to the contrary as well.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
Both are resource heavy...Compared to XP....At the moment XP seems to be a good choice for medium or lov level laptops

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
I use windows 7 and I must say I LOVE IT! I was advised not to go with window 7 however I am glad I did.
On top of that, there will never be new upgrades for XP. Windows 7 on the other hand will be receiving updates.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
I definitely think it is worth the upgrade, especially since Microsoft's support of XP is ending soon (if that kind of thing matters to you). I love the new taskbar as well. Just having icons is so much better than all of that text filling up the taskbar.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
windows 7 is everything good in xp plus the things that didn't totally suck in vista. i was a hardcore xp fan but i recently upgraded and have no regrets.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
i for one like windows 7 its really easy to do stuff with i like how you can drag a window to the right of left side and it will half screen the window so you can side by side 2 windows and compare stuff also when you drop a window to the top of the screen it full screens it also the search function is a million times faster than windows XP i dont remember how fast vista's was but i hated vista with a passion windows 7 is vista but without the slowness i totally recommend it

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
yeah, I really don't like W7. it's supposed to be a whole lot better than any of the previous Microsoft OSs but it really isn't. it doesn't have anything useful that wasn't in XP.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
It is much more stable than Vista and just plain better than XP so you have to do it.

Re: Is Windows 7 worth the upgrade
I don't find Win 7 as great as some folks do, more like a Vista service pack, some nice tweaks and a few nice extras.Hard to suggest paying customers on vista should bother.Windows vista has good graphics but windows 7 has better technology and better security software.All you will have to do is boot to your desktop,insert the Win7 Disk and upgrade. It will take a few hours to complete the process but that is all you do.
