Alpha System Requirements - Let the Upgrades Begin?

[McGoonagle]

XP is also 2 generations behind. Get with the times!

Yeah, but it's not a generation behind Vista

[Eldonia]

Yeah, but it's not a generation behind Vista

yeah it is, once SP1 came out and people actually started buying systems that could reasonably support it, Vista was the shit. 7 really isn't all that different other than not being called Vista. =x but that's another debate entirely

I would tear your apart if we were in the tech forum right now. Consider yourself spared.

I'm considering upgrading (Vista => 7) finally so I'm curious as well!

I literally gritted my teeth.

Go say the same thing in Tom's Hardware or any respectable tech forum and copy/paste the results.

[Kirbyprime]

I'm guessing we'll also get a larger volume of flaming in the tech forums.

Harsh words shall be said and people will die.

Tom's Hardware and respectable in the same sentence... lol.

[Kirb]

Tom's Hardware and respectable in the same sentence... lol.

Point being that anyone can pretty much argue the case against it.

haha ya I went straight XP -> win7 so I dno.

[Chrian]

win7 is like the speed of a nicely tuned winxp with the visuals of vista oh and that directx10 &11.

It's good, It's really really good.

/facepalm at people who said 7 is similar to Vista...

It is, in the same way that this:

While Vista became much less of a wreck after SP2, Windows 7 takes Vista to the next level on all fronts from usability to performance.

Chicks dig convertables.

I knew I shouldn't have clicked on this thread

"GO AHEAD CEPH, IT'S OKAY, IT CAN'T BE THAT BAD... PEOPLE AREN'T MISINFORMED ABOUT WINDOWS VERSIONS ANYMORE"

FUCK YOU, BRAIN

perhaps you guys misunderstood me, I wasn't trying to say they were the same OS or anything, or insinuating that 7 wasn't a major improvement.. just pointing out that it's not like it's a completely and totally new operating system that doesn't share any major similarities, as some people seem to think.

There are too many people who have either never used Vista, or have only used the original launch release on a pc with a gig of RAM who say it's garbage solely based on that..then that same person jerks off all over 7 as if it's something entirely different and innovative with no similarities.

but yes, 7 was definitely an improvement and I use it and love it....


hope that clears up wtf I meant. You can resume your original topic now

lol, nice attempt to take ur foot out of ur mouth.
