Friends: 22 | Re: Windows 7 Launch Parties I had my own party. I did install Windows 7 in a VM and it did run much quicker than my VM of Vista. But I still just dont like it. But really I will be installing Fedora 12 when its released next month. Worst case I will be installing XP Pro x64 if Fedora does not work out. |

Serious question: I'm thinking of getting a netbook, and I see that they are coming out with netbooks with Windows 7 instead of Windows XP on it (in the netbook world, they've essentially skipped Windows Vista). From your experience, would you advise getting one over the other? | |

Friends: 0 | Re: Windows 7 Launch Parties I have never heard and seen anything *SO* lame as the Windows 7 Launch party initiative. I mean, get a life, it's an OS not the launch of the man to the moon or the election of your favourite president.... I find the whole idea so sad... |

Friends: 2 | Re: Windows 7 Launch Parties Parties for an OS release is silly. That being said, I was looking forward to Windows 7 and have really enjoyed the few days I have had it installed. |

I plan on getting an Mbook M2 when it gets released and it is scheduled to have Windows 7. First thing I do when I get it is install XP. | |
