You know they dropped minwin to use server 08 right?

Everyones moving to it because it's new, and free in beta.

Windows 7 is awsome, however i've been having trouble overclocking my gpu with rivatuner using it.

I'm going on personal experience, I am running both and I am saying for me XP beats it hands down. What is people's obsession with benchmarks on things that don't even relate to what tasks I'm performing. Which is gaming etc..

Don't forget it's still in beta so performance will only improve.

I of course know that, and the official drivers when released will make a nice boost. Its great for everything bar gaming, and transcoding. Its just smoother and faster on XP.

The Vista kernel and 7 Kernel is the exact same. Its only gone through an upgrade, let me find the source that says this.

Why is everyone moving to Windows 7? It looks terrible.. why move? Vista - massive RAM abuser but it looks better than Windows 7.. or just use XP?

Opinion.

What is new too it? I have seen a pile of rubbish about it. Everything looks ugly from the previews.

Opinion.

900MB is a lot when you only have 1.75 GB.

Less then vista.

It's proportionate to how much RAM you have just like vista is. 900MB out of 8GB isn't alot.

Opinion.

What shocks me, is that I used to be an XP > Vista fanboy until I was forced to use vista, now I realise how much XP is worse. you should actually just go to Vista or 7.

I have to say Windows 7 is a huge improvement on Vista, it's like Vista, but they got it right this time.

Maybe I like it because it's becoming more Mac like... (bwahahaha, joking )
