Windows 7? Worth it?

bit-tech are very trusted news sources which actually do reliable tests. I will wait to see what they say before i think of downloading it as a main operating system

Seeing as you've never owned A Mac and therefore never used OSX as your main OS or you've never used every last Linux Distro on the planet suitable for a desktop, I'd say that your statement is ridiculously stupid.

Before responding to a post, read the entire thread. As I previously stated I already tried Windows 7. It was faster than Vista but slower than XP.

In your own opinion it's better. Then again you said you want the latest and greatest from everything. Therefore you probably think it's better than XP because it's newer.

Any negative things you say about Macs I'll simply ignore. You have never owned a Mac, therefore you're not able to judge them properly. Until you've actually had the experience of using a Mac and OSX any remarks you make about them are irrelevant and completely pointless.

As long as you're running a bloated unstable operating system your PC is as good as crap IMO.

Never in a million years would I even suggest that you take tech seriously, or even remotely know what you're talking about. Therefore you wouldn't know; sorry!

So a tech blog in 7 different languages with an Alexa rating of 1,360 is just guys reviewing games? Out of the 15 articles on their homepage, not one is reviewing games. Your obvious stupidity regarding Engadget just proves my point. You don't know anything about Engadget, but since I praised Engadget and you want to continue this argument, you have to flame Engadget.

I think if I showed this thread to any MacRumor forum users, Engadget viewers or even CNET viewers they'd most likely think you were a joke. In all the years I've been at HxF I've never seen such a misguided user in the Technology section. Walk out side, throw away your computer. Try doing something you're good at.

Sorry are you mentally ill, I use OS X, Linux and Windows regularly, Linux not so much, you don't need a mac to use OS X.

Hurf durf using a mac is just like any other pc, just with a UNIBODY ALUMINIUM CASE.

Let's put it this way, I've been using OS X on and off for more than 2 years now ;)

MacRumor users are all idiots that LOEV THE MAC like it's some sort of futuristic machine from the year 3000 (no, they do not live underwater).

Engadget viewers are just there to look at the shiny pictures.

Who cares about CNET?

Also, as you seem quite content about going on about this "misguided" thing, I've been dealing with tech problems, fixing pcs, doodling with macs and such, building machines and testing them for several years, I think I'm a wee bit more qualified than you to rant about useless hardware in macs and useless software in OS X.

The ball is in your court now boy, lets see you cloud my experience over with "HURF DURF JSUT CAUSE YOU USE PC FOR YEARS DOESN'T MEAN U CAN REVIEW!!!!!!!!! AND JUGE OS X"

Yes it does, yes I do, yes I can.

Nah XP will be faster by far, so why change :P

People who can afford real Macs and don't wish to be in Pystar's shoes actually buy a Mac manufactured by Apple. I'm one of these people.

Another case of opposing what I like to continue arguing.

You're not some tech god we're all going to worship. Based on what you post I'd say you're not at all more qualified than me. There are a lot more users in the tech section smarter and more experienced than you.

You say you fix pcs and screw around with computers as if nobody else in this section does either. Don't make the mistake of thinking that you're the only user in this section who thinks they're "tech savy".

Once again you assume you're the only one with experience working with computers. In your case I'd even say your experience doesn't speak for much, as a lot of what you say are the words of an idiot.

You've not said anything logical, nor have you provided me with any proof that what you're saying is genuine. Do you think by saying irrational things and not providing proof is a plausible thing to do? Do you think people will believe you when you can't be bothered to even attempt to to prove what you're saying is genuine?

Stop making funny sounds at me, and start being logical thanks;).

Thankyou for pressing enter twice after each quote, it makes it much easier for me to reply.

Sure there are, I'm just one of the smarter ones is all. And I'd imagine (Seeming as Dave did, and he's probably one of the smartest ones) they'd agree with me about 7 aswell.

I have a nice all in one unit, running a genuine non-illegal operating system with an ALUMINUM BODY CASE. Obviously price doesn't matter to me, though if it did I could justify that the HP all-in-one equivalent of an iMac is in the same price range. Also, I can justify that the extra money is worth it, as I'm getting a much more secure and stable operating system.

OS X isn't any more stable than Windows Vista on the right hardware. You're paying for overpriced off-the-shelf hardware. Enjoy doing that.
