1. Comment - Five Vista perception problems Windows 7 must overcome

   (May 30, 2009 - 9:21 AM)

   This is a very good discussion. I have been involved with PC s since DOS, then Windows for Workgroups 3.11 right up to present day. I have used Vista since its beta stage and although it has improved with SP1 and SP2, it is still a disappointment. I am now involved with the Beta and now RC version of Windows 7, I use the 64bit system as I did with Vista. And I can say without doubt that Windows 7 RC is a vast improvement over Vista, so much so that I have now installed as my main system, which I normally never do until RTM release, so I have installed all the stuff I used on Vista including games like GTA IV, its start up and shut down times are vastly improved over Vista Its much snappier than Vista in everyday use, smaller install footprint and RAM usage. If the RTM continues this then overtime I can see many XP users moving over to it. I do think MS should remove the Ultimate version and incorprate it in Premium Version as there is no real benefit on buying Ultimate as proven by Vista Ultimate in which very few so called benefits ever appeared. MS should also offer a free upgrade for current VIsta users and lastly, MS should really bring the price down because of the Vista mistake and encourage XP users to buy. To sum up, so far I love the improvements in Win 7, and MS should eat humble pie a bit more with the other points I made.

2. Comment - HP may trump Dell with a 24-hour battery-powered EliteBook

   Nice move by HP, although I am dubious as to wether this will work for 24 hours in the real world. Plus HP support via Infocare is really awful
