      WinME's issues were mostly user inflicted.

        One of which was myself. lol  I just started using Windows 7 RC yesterday and have managed to generate a few 'user inflicted issues' already. But I wouldn't say "here we go again" quite yet. One problem was with my Trend Micro Internet Security Pro causing a crash. Back when I inflicted issues with ME it would have taken me 3 days to find the Trend Micro Win 7 beta download. This time it only took 2.  ;D

          Hi,
          I currently have Windows 7 on my Toshiba Laptop, it looks great and is easily a replacement for Vista, it only took 30 minutes to install, and it boots faster and is faster in use. Had a problem with wireless, but now after an update - it all works great. I will definitely purchase this OS when it is released around August 2009.

          Windows 7 is a nice operating system, don't know if it' feels any faster than vista but I hear it's designed at the netbook level, so the older vista capable computers can become good windows 7 home premium (or whatever they call it) pc's!

              98% of Vista drivers will run your hardware on it if you care to give it another go...
