Microsoft better make this good or they are going to lose ALOT of money, considering they already did with Vista.

So far, though, I think its going to be a pretty good operating system.

I have been using the Release Candidate all day for months.  I. Love. It.

Windows 7 is just amazing.  Really, really fast, never crashes, and is very effecient with resources.  I can't wait until it comes out. =D

Since my dad works for Microsoft and does a lot of the testing/installation of new operating systems throughout the country, we have had Windows 7 on all of our computers for a while. It's great, far better than Vista. Which is a lot considering I like Vista. It's very smooth and easy to use, very efficient.

It definitely will not disappoint.

I'll wait till it comes out and hear what people say about the final release.... if they say its good, I'll get it. Then I can finally use DirectX10 in all my games... and I can get H2 if I want. lol.

How about PC games... since you know... Microsoft STARTED that whole Games for Windows program...

Or is Micro$oft pretty much throwing PC gaming in the trash?
