Lol, Windows 7 is by far the best operating system Microsoft have made since XP, and it far surpasses it in virtually all aspects, if run on a computer that's fit to run it. But... I'm not gonna go into that discussion again because I know from experience that it's pointless; people who are blind will choose to remain blind Stick with XP if you're happy with it.

Well said. I also agree with you. Vista is too much of a CPU hog, and XP is way out-dated. Your point is valid.

i use windows 7 x64, there are still a few compatibility issues but it is far superior to vista in so many ways, there is no way i could go back to any other os now.

if you won't go back then why not upgrade to something better like ubuntu 9.10

but then if some people choose to remain blind..

Hmmmm ubuntu is better than windows?? i completely disagree, it took an hour just to get flash player installed, i have attempted to install ETS but gave up after half hour.

How can any operating system where you have to keep manually inputting commands and have to go through 20 different processes just to get 1 program installed be better than windows, also in one of my previous posts, i touched on the compatibility problems of vista, ubuntu is far worse, for example, will R'n'R even install on ubuntu, and if it did will it work?

after a clean istall of windows all i have to do is load youtube, it tells me i need to update flash, i click the link and its done, all ubuntu has done is made me appreciate windows 7 even more.

Haha, that's Linux for you Yet its users keep insisting that it's far better and -get this - easier to use (haha) than Windows

well i consider myself an advanced pc user, i can build and repair pc's and i can use windows with no difficulty whatsoever but ubuntu is so confusing, i admit it runs very smoothly and there are a few areas where microsoft should take note for the next version of windows, i myself will stick with what i know.

The answer is NO, and hardly any game will install in Linux, as it uses a completly different way of work internally

So if this is the case how can ubuntu be superior to widows? i spent £1500 on my pc for 1 reason, to play games so i think i would rather remain blind thanks.
