Performance Tests Show Early Windows 7 Build Beats Vista

Its not really suprising, vista was an epic faliure.

Microsoft has a tendancy of making alternate good OS's. Think about it.

The whole Vista Office 2007 debacle adds nothing but stress to my daily grind. To get around Vista and its legendary inability to manage ports and legacy software I am now obliged to carry two computers one with XP and no sign of Microsnot's alter ego Symantec. Another win for the Wintel Cartel I suppose.

As for Office 2007, why did everything have to be so different? Don't the nerds realise that most workers are too time poor to waste time unlearning what they had to sweat so hard to learn?

Those of us with analytical rather than linguistic skills are severly disadvantaged especially with continually increasing workload. Most workers are obliged to utilise computers to get their job done. The computers are meant to ease the burden. It is now so out of hand as to cause a huge loss in productivity.

Nerds listen up, you might enjoy the chase but most of us have better things to do.

To follow up on Gates' premise regarding the Motor Industry, if US pickup trucks "progressed" at the same rate as computer operating systems, they would need 50 litre engines just to run at the same rate as they did in 1950. You would also need to walk through a maze just to get to put the key into the door.

I like office 2007

My son, who is 14 can operate office 2007 without a problem, so can I. Good luck, and keep trying.
