It has been confirmed that windows 7 is out. Not officially the only way to obtain it is via torrent. My friend has it he said it looks like vista. But all the work is under the hood which is bullshit. They make improvements to it and leave us vista people with nothing but bugs thanks. And eventually once this comes out Xp will most likely be no more for games. Seeing how they only do 2 operating systems a game usually. Like Vista, Xp: Xp, 2000 http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/artic...+PDC+WinHEC.htm Assumed to be completed in 2-3 years 09-10
Eh, If your friend still has it, Get him to open up the good ol CMD and type ver (They forgot to change it from 6 on some of the older skins...) http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/01/29/wi...ake_bittorrent/
sorry, but since an overwhelmingly about of ppl still have XP, games wont be making their games incompatible for some time. I've heard that once this comes out, they are going to stop updates for vista, or discontinue selling it or something...any truth to this?
Vista was rushed, It was susposed to come out in 2005, But then Microsoft thought it would of been funny to delay it every 6 months for 3 years. Back to the topic at hand. From what Ive had to deal with in Vista it was just a big ol patch to show that MS is actually working on something. Quite honestly, If Microsoft didn't release Vista when they did. I think we would have a hell of a lot more Macintosh Users. So there is no doubt in my mind that once Vienna comes out, Vista is going down the pipe with ME. EDIT: I havent seen a "Scene" rls of it...
actually, I wass quite happy with win XP, and I think it'll take many years before they come out with another OS i'm just as happy with.
