Windows 7 |
|
|
has anyone else installed it? It looks like Vista and I am too used to using XP to commit just yet, though i will give it a 30-day trial run on my laptop. I don't like what 7 did to the taskbar, everything moves around. 7 does start up a lot faster than both XP and Vista. I also like the search in 7, it's nearly instantaneous. |

I don't know what you mean about it 'looking like Vista'. My Vista is almost identical to Windows XP, except with a slightly different skin. |

I'm running 7 right now and love it. I upgraded from Vista. |

I'm not going to upgrade to Windows 7, obviously. I spent too much money on Vista to spend the same amount on 7 in such a short amount of time.
I may switch over fully to Linux, though. |

YOU BOUGHT WINDOWS VISTA?
Hey Theldorrin, there's this great program, it's called Photoshop, you should BUY it! It's only like $800.
I've also got some other software that you might want to buy, just ask.
Hahahahaha! |

I don't have Photoshop.
Also, it's unseemly for someone in the software industry to pirate. I can also write off the cost, and I don't have to worry about updates and whatnot. |

Theldorrin, Widows 7 is a free trial right now. So it won't cost you anything to try it out. |

I mean 'looks like vista' in that the default theme of 7 was very similar in appearance to the default Vista theme. All bubbly frames and taskbars and such like.
I changed it to Classic view of course! |

I don't understand the draw of a free trial. Are people seriously willing to format their computer after a few months to try it out, or is there some way to easily revert to your previous OS? |

Windows becomes bloated and need to be reformatted every few months, anyways. |

My XP doesn't look like XP, so I guess Windows 7 has to look like Windows 98 to impress me.
Classic look, bitches. |
