dacookster Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I've been running Win 7 for about 2 1/2 months. I like it. Smoother. I changed my recording computer over to it, not sure if that was the smartest idea but there's only been a few glitches. I need to check on a MOTU driver, but before Win 7's actual release, I could run Win 7 in 'vista 64' mode to recognize MOTU driver. That sold me, I thought it was so cool.

Tim Plains Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I also have a Mac at home. I love it! it's great for the more leisurely computer things - surfing the net, email, pictures, videos, music, etc. I made the mistake of buying iWorks (Apples version of MS Office), it sucks. I use a PC at work (Windows XP!) and MS Office is way better. Numbers (Excel wannabe) is horrible. I can't do anything with it. Glad I still have the option of using Excel at work.

RichCI Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 It's wise to wait to install any software until it's been out for a while. That way, you let all the early adopters be guinea pigs. That said, every review I've read about Windows 7 is saying it's the best and most stable OS they've ever released... but I'm still waiting until after the new year.

EVOL! Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 First off, not to sound like a broken record, but get a Mac. Secondly, it boggles my mind that Microsoft gets away with releasing the bug infested, POS operating systems that they do. Remember Windows ME? Guess we are supposed to forget about that. Then they turn around and do the same with Windows Vista. Riiiiiight. I work in a Windows shop so I am forced to deal with it. At home, you will *never* see my house infected with Windows.

Shnate McDuanus Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 They say that computers are like air conditioners: they stop working when you open up the Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 But they say that with EVERY release. It's like a metal band saying that every album "is their heaviest stuff yet!!!" muhahahahaha But seriously, I work in the IT Sales Industry....reviews on Win 7 are good....but only cuz everyone is comparing to Vista which was a disaster in the business space anyway....

ShredAstaire Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well, MS doesn't make computers so thats an unfair comparison....Dell (MS based) actually had a lot more than 3 fires to deal with last year on laptops....think fireballs....ouch!
