anyone running windows 7...notice any major differences between 7 and vista ?

only thing i have noticed is it uses less resources and does not come with a mail program, microsoft wants people to use their live essentials.

plz share your thoughts here ?

Forgot to mention that i just installed it 3 days ago...

The commercials seem cool. I like the split screen you can do on it. I have yet to buy it however and will be soon.

Windows 7 is what Vista was suppose to be. If you have not yet updated DO SO NOW it rocks. I have been using it for almost a year now and you get better battery life on a laptop and all the things we hated about Vista are all but gone.

It's nor perfect but the closet Microsoft has ever come.

I like the idea of not having to confirm every action, like in vista, it was a pain in the ass.

It's less buggy than Vista...do it

I have been running Vista since it came out & never had any of the problems I've heard people complain about.
Admittedly, I use my computers for fun & not work.
Basically, I surf the inter~tubes,
What is this "update" you speak of?
Does anyone have more info on IE7 and why should I upgrade to it?
What about the cost of going from Vista Home Premium to IE7?

Thanks for any info.

The "update" he is reffering to is an upgrade from vista to windows 7

@Marshmello...if you are happy with Vista then stay with it. I personally like to try new things...i'm curious by nature

also i like to keep pace with the development of computer and internet.

I'm running windows 7 on a laptop that would have choked on vista. 7 is really nice, great graphical touches for the UI, stable, fast...

I haven't liked windows this much since XP

yes i agree, xp was good but had it's problems when first introduced but became very stabel. Vista is a greedy resource hog...way too many services running in the background.
