Hey if Microsoft can get people to buy Windows ME I don't think selling Windows 7 is going to present much on issue.

Funny how the boxes lose color with each subsequent release... as the individuality is drained from every Windows user. Ladies and gentlemen, we need not fear the Borg. They have been here among us since the early '80's, and the assimilation is almost complete.

Well, except for those crazy Mac users and the social rejects who cling to Linux.

It's probably a cost saving measure.

I use Linux, I use Windows, I use Mac so what does that say about me?

People will gladly buy 7 if it means ditching Vista.

 

[Amaris]

At least they cut down the number of options and went back to the basic 3.
That being said, "Google Android" ?

I'll be getting a new "super computer" and tri-boot Win7, Ubuntu and OSX in October. And update my netbook with 7.

Most people will be getting the OZ-OS.

You have a fear of commitment.

I like it, simple.

Yeah, but they won't buy it in a box.
