Today in the Post, Rob continues to be "less than enthused." Rob Pegoraro - Windows 7 Improves on Vista but is No Mac OSX http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/10/16/AR2009101600707.html He writes things like "overpriced" "a step back" "clutter" "recipe for pain" and concludes... "In other words, if you were hoping to stop policing random software-versus-hardware squabbles, Windows 7 isn't the operating system for you. Nor does it bring an end to drawn-out program installations and uninstallations, the risk of virus and malware attacks, the need to submit the computer to "validation" checks, or compatibility problems between 32-bit software and 64-bit installations of Windows. "Then again, for Vista users weary of that operating system's foibles, Win 7's selling points can stop at two words: "not Vista." ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
