I went from XP to Windows 7 and I quite enjoyed it
I got the 64bit version, not had any problems yet

Back in my techie days, I used to love doing stuff like this.

A real upgrade or replacement? In place upgrade = recipe for problems.

I just backed up my daughter's Vista laptop, did a clean install of the free Dell Win 7 64-bit "upgrade" DVD and restored her data. No drama, whole thing took a couple of hours. Only had to manually install a single driver.

I'm still running the RC on a couple of machines - must get round to replacing these.

I will have to have a look at this. I dropped windows on home machines about 18 months ago and went for Ubuntu + Mac. Recently the mac was dropped too.

I should get windows 7 going on a virtual install, to see what the fuss is about.

just had some pain after uninstalling Norton on Windows 7...blue screen of death...a real pain..think its more to do with the Wireless Network Adaptor but not sure why this has reared its ugly head now. First impressions of Win7 not good Im afraid :-|

I quite liked Windows 2000 and XP (service pack 3)
OK , not the most exciting operating systems in the world but they were stable.
