besides, as complex a system windows is, they will never have a bug free
operating system. thats not possible, with the pure amount of lines of
code. so no, that won't ever happen. and yes, 7 is more stable. because
they had time to sort a lot of things out.

I would like to see, if Microsoft insists on continually coming out
with a new OS time and time again, is that they quit rushing them to
market before the bugs are worked out, and give us a solid stable
product that has thoroughly been tested and proven to be stable and
reliable, rather than a junky troublesome buggy product. I know the
task would be massive, and I know it would take an enormous amount of
time and effort, but it would sure do a lot to regain the credibility
they once had, and it would also be more readily received by the
customers.

Hi Charles and all,
If you want to make that argument consider this. When Windows Vista
came out Windows XP was already six years old, and it introduced a lot
of new graphics technology that wasn't possible on the hardware specs
in 2001. Both Windows 7 and Windows 8 use the exact same hardware
requirements as Windows Vista, and actually run better on the same
hardware specs. So your argument of having to replace your hardware
every time Microsoft upgrades doesn't hold water. I really urge you
guys to research your facts before making baseless arguments like this
because Microsoft does not change system requirements every two years
or for every Windows upgrade like you suggest.
Cheers!

Another thing about new technology--Microsoft's Windows in

loaded with enough RAM, the hardware isn't supported by the new OS,
and I
need to move along with technology, I will do so. However, 2 years
down the
road, before the bugs have been worked out of this OS I bought the
new PC to
be able to operate, Microsoft comes out with a new, more demanding
OS. Two
years later, another one that is more demanding. Two years later,
another
one that is more demanding. Before I know it, thanks only to
Microsoft, I
have another obsolete computer. I need to buy another one to handle
the new
technology. This! is! crap!
