    I was hoping that the Gates would have given up after Vista.

    I guess he is still trying to compete with MAC or Ubuntu.

    Maybe there is hope. Maybe they will revert to NT 4.0 or XP.

    On second thought, probably not.

    From my experience in the beta, windows 7 is an improvement....

    i've use Mac (my wife have a macbook), windows 3.11-windows 7...

    and i can honestly say that Windows 7 is the best windows OS ive ever use...

    And i would say i like it just as much as OSX or Obuntu...

    they are all good OS...
    i really hate the bashing of OS...
    have you used Vista or 7?

    Agreed, running RC on my home laptop flawlessly. I skipped Vista so I cannot compare. Looking forward to the official release!
