"Definitely Better"
Version: Windows 7 (Ultimate) 6.1.7601.17514.101119-1850
Pros
A lot zippier than Vista, interface feels smoother, feels like it runs lighter on system resources
Cons
This should have been Vista
Summary
I started using 7 on my work notebook. The first thing I noticed was, this is what Vista should have been. It's faster all around and doesn't have that resource hog feeling that Vista is infamous for. There are no major changes in the appearance or operation of the user interface. It's still windows being windows.
Bottom line--Vista is just a windows 7 beta. -

"The best operating system so far from microsoft"
Version: Windows 7 (Ultimate) 6.1.7601.17514.101119-1850
Pros
Much smoother running than Vista. Improved user interface. Compatible with older software.
Cons
I installed the 64 bit version. It might have been a mistake, as I have less than 4GB ram memory, and there are almost no applications for 64 bit.

"System hog, background activity, long start-up time."
Version: Windows 7 (Ultimate) 6.1.7601.17514.101119-1850
Pros
An improvement over Vista.
Cons
Forget this OS unless you have at least a very new computer.
Summary
Watching my resources-used gauge, it ran anywhere from 10% to 40% ... at idle. I have an 'old' computer, about 3 years old. I don't believe one should have to toss a computer into the landfill to accomodate an OS. XP works well enough. I'm wondering how many people that rated this 5 stars have ever tried a different OS such as Mac or Linux.
My really old computer is running Ubuntu and it's faster (on the web) than any Windows based machine I've ever used. Browser open, browser closed, just like that. No background activity. I never get an error report asking me to report it to Linux. When this Linux-based computer is powered on, I wait way less than one minute for the HD to stop loading the OS. With Windows, I have to turn the computer on and find something to do for a few minutes.
Why do we have to put up with all of this junk in the operating system?
