    You'll be fine, MS have historically tended to oscillate when it comes to quality of operating systems.

    Win3.1 (good) -> 95 (decent, not great) -> 98 (Good) -> ME (very bad) -> XP / 2K (Good) -> Vista (bad) -> Win7 (Good)

    And it starts.

    Edit: @Shuvo don't forget ME.... it was my 1st OS. I remember taking the brand new computer out of the box, hooking it up, and getting BSoD. I thought i killed the computer opening it up!

    Vista wasn't "very bad", and certainly not on the level of ME which had major, major flaws. Vista was more like.... a beta that the public helped to test By the time SP1 rolled around it was a pretty decent OS.

    Anyway I don't really like the idea of an "app store", makes me paranoid that Microsoft would try to make cool things "premium" features to try to cash in on them. The Sidebar and widgets are nice but hell if I'm gonna pay for them! I just hope they focus on streamlining response time, with the processing power these days it's a crime that most programs still don't open instantly...

    And really, the Mac v PC thing again? It's been overdone. Let's keep talking about Windows 8 and not fall into that derail for the billionth time..

    Mac vs PC has been going on since the 80s, it's not stopping now!!

    I didn't forget ME, it's on my list. O_o

    Vista sucks. I'd give a detailed argument why but I'm sure that's been beaten to death as well somewhere. But I'll agree that it wasn't as bad as ME.

    I'll just leave this here.

    And LOL at "MS copying Apple". This just in, folks - examining your competitor's successes and using those to improve your business model is copying!

    Sorry, I didn't mean to pc vs mac >.>

    Was just pointing out that MS software is expensive because it's their business model, apple can sell its os cheap because 99% of people using it are using their hardware.

    Don't forget the part where they can take out clicking and keyboard features from their OS and still sell it to all their morons. For a profit.

    Maybe Microsoft should try and get in on this 'moron' market, since it's obviously doing pretty fucking well for Apple.

    I'd rather they didn't if it meant dumbing things down for everyone.

    HP and Dell each generally sell about 6 times as many computers as apple per year.

    Why don't you morons just use linux for free and shut the fuck up. Im not really in a mood for a Apple vs MS pissing contest. While were on the subject I wonder how long this takes to turn into PS3 vs Xbox, with Leeroy here this wont take too long.

    I've been unable to find a single reason for using linux in a home computer other than circle-jerking with fellow linux users.
