Or, to translate from the very British terminology: companies using Windows are planning to upgrade to Windows 7 before the first service pack. Of course, that’s hardly news to us in the hard-core tech-geek community, because we see Windows 7 as nothing more than a large (and very much needed) service pack for Windows Vista anyway.
Ain’t that the friggin truth. Thing is, people that hate Vista, love 7, I’m one of them! 🙂
I’m still ambivalent about it. I haven’t tried it yet (and with its probable hardware requirements I likely won’t any time soon), but I’ve heard good things about it from people whose opinions carry weight with me. We’ll see what happens, maybe I’ll get bored sometime soon and decide to try it out.
I kind of like Windows 7 too… Seems pretty fast, but then again, Vista seemed OK on this hardware. 🙂 I still like OS X, not because it’s especially more secure, or more stable overall, but because it’s Unix. I kind of hate Window’s “welded shut” and kludgy nature and Windows 7 hasn’t changed that.
