I own vista and tried 7 for a while. 'Bout the same cept 7's much more streamlined. Everyone complaining about how much of their memory and processor it's using stfu and get something better than a 1ghz p3. If you have a "modern" computer, anything dual core or better, they both run great in games and out. In many cases better than xp (those who don't think so, kiss my balls, because the difference is negligable.) I've done 3d modelling and photoshop on both os's, both do fine. Everyone just needs to calm themselves and buy 7 already like they should've vista. Everyone complains, but everyone complained about xp when it came out too. I didn't install it for over a year after it came out because of all the complaints, when i did i was amazed. Same with vista. No problems, ever. It's called upgrading, don't try to use your 15 year old printer on your new computer when the company is long out of business. If you do, don't complain that there aren't drivers, you're retarded for not spending 50 bucks on a new printer but spending 1000+ on a new computer.
