I have used it briefly, and it didn't impress me. But that isn't entirely the fault of Windows itself. I was setting up a friend's bargain basement HP laptop, and the OS wouldn't have been so laggy had it been running on better hardware. Best Buy and HP also had a lot of preloaded sh¡it on their that was probably slowing it down too. I should've uninstalled it, but I was too lazy. I will say that 7 is better than Vista. I cringe whenever someone wants me to do something to a Vista machine.

Personally, I still like XP. There've been enough service packs and tweaks over the years that it seems to run really well. I think our IT people must agree, because any new non-Apple computer that the school buys is still ordered with XP installed. It looks like they're slowly migrating to OS X based machines, but it is a very slow and unofficial adoption if that is, indeed, what they're doing. I've just noticed a lot of the newer computers being bought are iMacs.

My default windows OS is XP too. Vista sucked and Win7 is better but they moved everything around, tried to imitate the masters (apple) and failed imo, also most out of the box windows computers are so bogged down with added software that it truly messes up the experience. Windows should stop allowing that. Also Apple OS is cheaper to upgrade than windows. So yes Apples cost more in the beginning but over time they are actually cheaper, no av to buy or tweak or to slow you down, OS upgrades cheaper, down time way less. I guess once you go Mac you don't go back.

I do think that apple had to get money from them way back when or was that just rumors ? At least that is what I think I saw somewhere during my web surfing.

If that is true then MS is just getting some of it's investment back then by the so called copying smile
