DaemonFCDiablo-D3, Windows 7 is not really a full upgrade over VistaNov 04 04:16
DaemonFCit's something in between a service pack and a new version of WindowsNov 04 04:16
Diablo-D3yes, but its buggyNov 04 04:17
DaemonFCXP SP2 was a bigger change than Vista to 7Nov 04 04:17
Diablo-D3and follows the new windows ruleNov 04 04:17

DaemonFCthey may have even fixed someNov 04 04:20
DaemonFCbut there's just not that many new features worth mentioningNov 04 04:20
oiaohmThere is nothing in 7 to get the market back from those who jumped to Linux.Nov 04 04:27
