Windows 7But it’s had its problems. Not all were Microsoft’s fault, but Microsoft’s name is on the box. It’s Microsoft they’re going to blame. People paid good money for Vista expecting to receive a racehorse, and Microsoft sent them a pig in a wig instead. Giving Vista users a free upgrade to Windows 7 wouldn’t affect Microsoft that much. Many of them would upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate. Many of them would use Windows Live, and Office, and other Microsoft products. And when it’s time to buy a new PC, it might just keep them out of the Apple Store.

Microsoft won’t do it. But it should.

    I hade no opportunity to work hard with the Vista, so I don’t have much to comment. I simply heard that has lots of problems. I hope that the new OS doesn’t bring the same problems as the Vista

    I think that the Microsoft does not have guilt. Microsoft has created windows Vista with the objective to help but it didn’t happen. It didn’t help due to its exaggerated tools. Apple was in advantage with the Microsoft because instead of leaving a operative system that helped, it left one that that has too much problems.

    I think that Microsoft does not have guilt…! ” The Microsoft launched this windows to be able to help, but he didn’t, as well as foreseen, finished for getting worse the things! because it had too many tools, and nor all had utility.

    Windows 7 will replace Windows Vista because it is faster and is compatible with almost all programs, programs that are not compatible with Windows Vista. Windows 7 is much easier to work with him.

    In my opinion I find that the Seen Windows was a serious problem because of occupying great part of space (to be too much ” weighed” for the PC) instead of this Microsoft this error created the Windows7 for recompor. E we wait that it is faster less composed e for tools that not if of the very using one.

    becouse Windows Vista is a programme that is slover than antecipated, everione thought it would be faster for the PC, it would be easier and instead is a programme that is not compatible with some programmes and causes many problems in the system. The Windows 7 is a programme faster at startup and has for the system couers much more quickly than the Vista. It is compatible with almost all programmes and very well mode. Becouse of this it has no virtual errors and is more simple to work with.

    Windows vista , comes loaded of systems of protection anti-copy and blockade of contents for pressures of entities as the same type of the American SPA and others, supposedly to fight the piracy. These systems are integrated in the basic programming of the system, reason for which is very difficult to cancel or to skirt. The result is that, if you install the Seen Windows, or purchase a computer brings that it daily pay-installed, already you will not be able to see or to record videos nor to hear or to record unloaded music of the Internet.

    The view at the beginning vei it to many problems, it is the fault of Microsoft or not it already can not say, but what is certain is that new versions of Vista has worked well I speak from experience. Microsoft to redeem themselves from the problems that have seen, is betting that a new operating system is Windows 7, and pensso that with this new software is going to recover the points lost by order

    In my opinion the seen Windows was a little badly launching on the part of Microsoft. It could have done varies versions of the Sight, one with the totality of the options and another one with the options for domestic users, who do not use 20% of the options of the Sight. With the o next launching to the Windows7 expects that it comes fast e with little not usable options for the user I do not domesticate.

    Seen Windows as it left with some defects as for example I exaggerate, it of its capacity in the PC… Now Microsoft had to reflect and to leave to bring up to date more recent its windows (windows7) of what the purchasers of windows seen to spend in the purchase of windows more advanced (W7)… As I also am an user of the Seen Windows, I speak for me giving my opinion! Therefore taste to use more advanced technologies, therefore if they to be valid impose a fine on… with my done research find that valley imposes a fine on, therefore windows7 have its advantages: *é faster of what the Sight, in tasks as the start or locking up of the system, makes a more efficient management of the battery and has a táctil interface, that it allows the user to use some data to interact with its monitor… ;P

    I agree with this post… And here goes my reasons…
    It´s true that not all of the problems are microsoft fault…
    Third parties are the real guilty of most of the incompatibilities, they just didn’t made the drivers fast enough for example…
    But truth be told, vista is a heavy o.s. with too many bugs and crashdowns… Was it this that the consumers were expecting when they were paying for vista??? Of course not… Were they satisfied??? (laughter)… So microsoft really should make windows 7 a free upgrade for vista to compensate or even like some kind of apollogie towards those who spent money with vista… It would be a nice gesture… And a cheap one since real money does not come from upgrades but from new PCs…
    They wont do this but at the same time they risk losing clients to Steve Jobs…
    Although windows 7 comes in a good time, will people trust in microsoft again??? Perhaps not all of them…
