"Windows 7 Kills Lion"
Version: Windows 7 (Professional) 6.1 - Build 7601
Pros
Faster,greater multitasking, less bloated, better Compatibility, ease of use, more stable and less freezes, redesigned taskbar is nice, and aero theme is cool.
Cons
Not many, only con is some of my older programs won't work and expensive.
Summary
Overall way better than that 2000 dollar rip off know as mac and osx lion. Lion litterally froze and fporced me to restart it like 5 times a day. Thats 35 restarts a week! Windows 7 has not crash or froze on me since i started using it. And it is much faster than any other OS I used

"more of the same"
Version: Windows 7 (Professional) 6.1 - Build 7601
Pros
you may be forced to use it for some applications
Cons
I positively despise Windows 7. I have to use it for some work related programs but otherwise have a Mac. It is more of the same screen locking, blue screen of death, software load failure performance synonymous with Windows but how, after so many versions and updates, can it still be having the same issues? And as an additional slap in the face, you have to dig further and rummage through even more screens to get it set up the way you want. Utterly unintuitive, cumbersome, loaded with annoying sounds and dings set to chime by default, it is a complete annoyance. The only other businesses that can get away with Microsoft's incompetence are Health Care and Car Insurance. You can cruise along for a few weeks without issue and then, out of nowhere, there are messages that Outlook did not not closing properly, lock-ups when trying to install a new printer...I am sure I am not saying anything new here.
Summary
If it came to having Windows 7 as an only choice or having no PC at all - I would not have a PC.Do yourself a favor and fork over the (outrageous) price of a Mac before going with WIN/PC. Once you recover financially life gets infinitely better!

"Absolutely beautiful and easy to use."
Version: Windows 7 (Professional) 6.1 - Build 7601
Pros
Looks stunning on running on my laptop
Had no problems at all since I've been running it
Recently upgraded from Vista, (clean install) as I did something stupid and it made the OS explode, windows 7 was a really nice change, and I'm actually glad I upgraded now.Cons
None what so ever.
Summary
Not a huge change from Vista. I had no problems with vista before I upgraded, but Windows 7 really is a nice change. It's a lot faster as an OS and I was rather glad to get rid of the crapware on my old OS when I did this clean install.

"UBUNTU and Mac have both made strides too."
Version: Windows 7 (Professional) 6.1 - Build 7601
Pros
Big improvement over Vista if you don't mind spending the $400+ for the Professional/Enterprise version.
Cons
No good OEM OS. If you think the OEM Home edition will give you the experience you get in Pro or Enterprise, you're wrong. Low end versions are worse than Vista and laggy.
Summary
Microsoft needs to get used to the fact nobody wants to pay $400 for a PC and then another $400 for the OS anymore...just to spend more money on the actual software. The business model needs to change or they need to go away.
