Umm, no.
Windows 7 is 9GB, but they’re still well spent.

@muk546 Windows Vista was a lot more of a space eater, in fact most of the software I come across for both OS’s, the OS X version is bigger in size.

What makes it hard are mostly human flaws that bind the code to a 32 bit architecture and thus has to be altered to compile. The other problem is interoperability. a 32bit chip will never run 64 bit code

iswygfm – Hand movement when addressing is the correct way to speak to a public audience. Get up in front of a crowd and try speaking with your hands in your pants and see how unnatural it feels, or how receptive your audience was. Look at any president for an example.

excuse me with my comment i wasnt thinking straight. i think your right i totally agree i saw your vids on setting osx free and you made a lot of good points, i currently own a pc but im saving up for a mac i cant imagine what osx would be worth if apple set it free since macs themselves are so expensive. But,mac hardware does come with very good standard hardware for their machines. since hardware devs do what they want with windows you can get very crappy hardware.

Well the computer I have it on is slightly better then my 32-bit desktop (pretty much only by having faster memory), but has a weaksauce core2 duo processor vs. a quad core on the 32-bit. So I don’t know.

64bit VIsta had quite a lot of rewriting for the core system functions like Explorer (although I believe in 7 the whole Explorer was rewritten from scratch). It’s hard to bulid 32bit code into 64, so it was just new code, which is why 64bit Vista/7 runs faster (or seems to run, it may simply be in your head if it’s on the same hardware with less than 4GB of RAM).

an incremental change to windows would have been more then welcome…if vista wasent such a horrible OS.

im not a mac fan boy i have both macs and pc’s and i find that i scream at my pc alot more lol.

I convinced my friend that Snow Leopard would be a good upgrade for his mac, based on what I read and heard, He happily upgraded, and there were no errors. He was severely disappointed that it really didn’t show any significant speed increase, and he told me something about iLife wasn’t working right, I think he had an older disk of it.
Windows 7 has given me some problems in the past, but the RTM I got from MSDN seems really quick and smooth.

there are two seperate operating systems for Windows
Windows 32bit

Windows 64bit

Windows 32bit will not run 64bit apps, but only 32bit apps, while Windows 64bit can run a sort of emulator to run 32bit apps aswell.

Thats what I could understand from it.

Well Windows Vista 64 bit runs way faster then 32 bit, so there must be something to it.

windows is full 64 bit? like say windows media player and disk defrag are 64 bit? or does he mean by you can run 64 apps on windows?

First: 9 years old, yes, but fully supported with updates and service packs.

Second: I set everything to classic, including start menu.

Third: I don’t care how nice it looks, thats not what im after in an OS. I appreciate its advancements, but i don’t like its digressions like the lack of classic start menu (might not matter to you, but it does to me) and little changes like that that make me not want to change to it. If you like it, fine, use it, but don’t make an argument based on opinion.

apple controls their own hardware and drivers, would be more easier to get the mac users to 64bit

The curtain has been raised (slightly) on the next installment of Microsoft’s Windows operating system – Windows 7.

Microsoft hope it will bring the internet, mobile phone and PC closer together. But reviews have so far been mixed, although reviewers have been limited to trying the (pre-beta version).

The full version is expected to be capable of working with a touchscreen screen, navigating documents and the Web similar to Apple’s iPhone. It is officially released at the end of 2009.

InfoWorld

“I have seen the future, and it is bleak. Windows 7, the next big version, the one that was supposed to fix everything that was wrong with Vista, is here (at least in pre-beta form), and I can now say – with some confidence – that Microsoft has once again dropped the ball.

“Overall, I’m extremely disappointed with Windows 7. Far from atoning for Vista’s sins, Windows 7 simply carries them forward, visiting them upon yet another generation. Windows 7 is no panacea. Rather, it’s just more of the same: slow, bloated, and frustrating as hell.”

The Register

“When it comes to Windows 7, Microsoft hasn’t just learned from the mistakes of Windows Vista. It has picked up a thing or two from Apple’s OS X, judging by first impressions.

Techradar

“It’s not clear how big the changes are so far. If you put the beta-build of Windows 7 side-by-side with Windows Vista, you’d be hard-pressed to spot the differences. Yes, some of the icons look slightly different and there’s no sidebar, but it’s essentially still the Vista look and feel. But that changes when you start to use Windows 7.

“For a start the OS won’t nag you as much; many notifications are banished to a control panel, you get to approve icons before they show up in the system tray and Microsoft has reined in Vista’s useful but annoying UAC prompts; you can choose which ones you want to see or turn them off altogether.”

ZDNet

“Initially Windows 7 looks similar to Vista, but there a lot of new features that have been added. Under the skin, Microsoft has been working hard. Boot times have been reduced, and certainly the review laptop Microsoft provided has a fairly snappy boot time.

“Microsoft has been working with OEMs to improve battery life – simple things such as reducing the timer frequency can improve battery life by up to 10 per cent. The networking stack has had new diagnostics added to help users figure out exactly where the problem lies.

PC Magazine

“So, is this all a big deal? It’s not a change to the fundamental core of Windows, and most of the improvements sound relatively small. But taken together, they seem to address many of the issues people have had for Windows. I’m looking forward to trying it out, starting this afternoon.”
