Vista X64 has been good to me, but I can't wait for 7 to be out.

I would try the beta but with the shit I do, I dont feel like hunting drivers down.

This is the BEST part of Windows 7. I have not had to install a single driver yet. It searches and installs in less than 30 seconds. It also boots extremely fast and the install took less than 20 minutes.

seems a little late, seeing as how 7 is on it's way already.

Good thing the cult is a few months old. And just because Windows 7 is coming out doesn't mean no one will operate Vista.

I like vista, it looks great and runs fine for me. But thats because I have a nice computer, not some old POS that I got slapped vista on which couldnt support it. I hate it when people have crappy comps then complain that vista doesnt work well... what do you expect? its the comps fault, not vista

I cant partition my 250GB hard drive and have a lot of breathing room left over. 

I might go and pick up another one and throw 7 and Ubuntu on it to have some fun.

From what ive seen 7 has been performing much better than vista already, ill be skipping vista in favor of 7, but only after the first or second service pack~

We've been running Vista on a few test computers at work for a little while, and it's definitely already more stable than Vista.

Yeah, I'm retarded. I meant 7 is more stable than Vista.

my vista x64 drivers transferred over to windows 7 x64 flawlessly.

i guess i dont see the hype about 7 yet.. i mean it has a lot of visual effects, but it pretty much is vista. (i've only booted into it twice now, to play left4dead both times, haha)
