T Tinkerer New member Nov 5, 2009 #1 Is it any good. I have Vista and have been having lots of problems. Thinking of upgrading with a new lap top and upgrading the OS on the old one and the PC to 7. What choice do I have.

BDiggity New member Nov 5, 2009 #3 Windows 7 is excellent. Been using the RC for couple months now without issue.
Boss252 New member Nov 6, 2009 #4 I have been running on a couple of computers without issue. Most of the time it is better to wait until the first service pack to come out before upgrading. Since you have Vista I would say you would be very happy with Windows 7.

clayinaustin Charter Member Nov 6, 2009 #5 My advise - If you have Windows XP SP3, stay with XP until Windows 7 SP1 comes out. If you have Vista, get Windows 7 today! Good luck!

MacGyver Charter Member Nov 6, 2009 #6 I'm running Vista on my laptop and haven't had a single issue. When I build my next desktop, I'll install Windows 7, SP1.

At least I can say he is not calling me with as many problems as he did with Vista. :sifone:

We must be the lucky ones. I bought my wife a Sony laptop last year that is running Vista, and knock on wood, it's been problem-free. As for my own desktop....it runs on OS X. :sifone:

Same here, been running WIndows 7 since it came out of Beta. No problems clayinaustin said: My advise - If you have Windows XP SP3, stay with XP until Windows 7 SP1 comes out.

I think XP has gotten bloated and a little buggy since SP3 (conspirators think MS did this intensionally to move people out of XP).
