You decide. We don't know what you want to do with your computer.

I've been on Windows 7 for about a week now to test for bugs.
Fuck XP, make way for the new best OS.
This shit will be epic when the full version is released.

Windows XP will stop being supported sooner or later, so suck it up and keep with the times. Vista isn't bad either, so stop complaining.

I was thinking that 7 might be worth a try. The only thing keeping it from me is the hardware
1600MHZ Pentium M and 1280MB ram dont works too well

I would try it, my hardware is good to go, better than his anyway (video card is old as SHIT)
the only problem is I have DSL and that shit is TOO FUCKING SLOW to download anything. a 10 minute video on gametrailers takes 40 minutes to and hour so think how long it would take to download an OPERATING SYSTEM!

Yes because things turn old even before birth.

(this is simon by the way)
From reading ragingfred's post I've just remembered something about Windows 7, if you're going to download it MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHICH NETWORK/AUDIO/WHATEVER DRIVERS YOU'RE GOING TO BE DOWNLOADING. Most drivers DO NOT work from XP/Vista because of a completely different OS, my friend wreckages tried to download all the drivers he could and THEY ALL FAILED.
There is jackshit available to download right now on the internet, and the drivers you all probably use will almost likely NOT WORK. I've been lucky and my driver was compatible with Windows 7 too for some reason along with others.
So I'll say this again, DO NOT DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 7 IF YOU WANT INTERNET. Don't even download it when the BETA is released because there still won't be any available then, do it when you see drivers start appearing for your network card and windows 7.
THANK YOU AND HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.

Also, I'm going to lol when everyone raves about how great Windows 7 is, only to be shown up by Mac OS X: Snow Leopard.

I would like to make a special note: If you have a Mac, or an Apple based computer, or if you have a friend with a Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Install Disk, you can use the Boot Camp drivers there to prep your computer with necessary drivers.
Now, some of them won't work, and you'll have to go into the CD and manually install the drivers by finding the correct Windows Installer files, but you can find just about everything you need on that disk.
