Didn’t Vista just come out? Windows 7 sounds like just another way to suck more money out of us.
I wish LINUX would catch up with their hardware support and ease of use as I can’t afford MS anymore…

Yeah, I think vista came out in 07 or 08.

The reason they began work on Windows 7 is because Vista in it’s original release was less then useful to many.

Yeah i don’t know, right now on all my beta stuff, and on the dashboard its called Windows 7. But it will probably change before production.

Bike, I have friends over and they absolutely drool over the functionality, speed, and style it has compared to Vista Pro, so I think it will definitely be worth the money, I know I plan on purchasing the full thing after my beta ends.

Maybe until the 5th? Also, im not sure, but you might have to be registered with Microsoft Connect, which is Microsoft Beta testing community. Im not sure if its necessary, you might want to wait until the 5th to see if you have to or not.

But if you do, go to Microsoft Connect and register.
