I'll be willing to give Win7 a chance
Not like Vista. I thought 2 years before it came out, that Vista was going to be a bad joke, and I was pretty much justified. I've yet to buy it, and will never buy or have it pre-installed.


I have a different feel for Win7 however. It would be a good idea if they scrapped the bloat of Vista and made it with the Micro kernal I heard about, but I've been hearing that it'll be as big, or bigger than Vista. How wonderful to put so much of your computer power to run the bloat of the OS. I rather put that on the programs.


Maybe after Win7, they'll go back to the drawing board for a very lean, and practical OS...and yeah, pigs will fly too.


Maybe ReactOS will make them think differently.
