New Microsoft OS' cancelling out new spec lappys?

[Captain Planet]

i see it this way

Before the dual core XP was standard on a 1.8ghz processor and 500mb -1gb of ram

Vista Standard on a 1.7 Dual core with 1gb RAM

Windows 7 Standard Standard 2.0 with 2gb RAM

I'm not sure if I'm right but is 7 a big jump from Vista?

Cos to me its pointless at times getting a new PC only for half of the specs to be solely there to accomodate the OS

I wanna run millions of leagues in FM flawlessly

I have a 2007 Laptop with both Vista and Leopard installed

Vista is relatively OKish, but Leopard is fast and smooth.

Verdict: MS Sux

7 will run smoother on 2gb than Vista.

MS does suck, but you've got Windows installed on a machine built for OSX so obviously its not gonna be as good as it can be.

I still use xp on all my computers, i would rather have better performance than a fancy looking OS.

if you have dual core, you should be running 7. Vista is slower then windows 7. Tinyxp is awesome on single cores. Tinywindows7 is ok but too stripped down, so just config the services urself

[Mr. Martinez]

Windows 7 is basically an update to Vista.

If you run Vista from when you bought it, you should run 7 with no issues.

[Captain Planet]

So XP can be made compatible with dual cores?

Cos i've got a nice lappy which i've just started using that had 7 pre-installed

[O.Man]

if u have dual core, you want windows 7 xp won't perform as well as windows 7

[zlastboss]

vista is a very strong ram whore

my viao came ith vista and 1 gig of ram

stupid as once i boot up around 60% of ram jus gone straight

[Captain Planet]

That windows aero skin theme thingy makes a big difference aswell, turned that off when I first got my vista lappy
