I heard Windows 7 will cure cancer...

I really don't know why or how people can be saying they will wait for Windows 7 to switch because it's going to be leaner, faster, less of a resource hog, compatible with my 16bit software, compatible with my 8 year old printer o scanner etc etc etc.

You can't just assume that. Neither think it will be available next year. Not just because they say so. I'm not a hater, mind you. I'm a Windows user, I loved my Win XP and I'm loving my Vista64.

I really don't know why people think that the hardware requirements for the new Windows are going to be lower. In to years when it will maybe come out or when the SP1 comes out for it (you know many people will automatically say they'll wait for SP1) ram will be even cheaper, CPU's more powerful etc.

Do you still have/need to use your PIII 500 mhz with 256mb of ram or whatever people still use, then keep using XP or your OS, who's forcing you to change?

I can still remember when I had my PII 233 mhz with 128mb running Win98SE that was cool till XP came out and it was sluggish... XP's fault? hardly. I upgraded to a faster pc and XP suddenly was the best thing since sliced bread.. oh wait that was after SP2. Todays Vista bashing is just the same thing...

Windows 7 could probably just be a more modular and faster Vista (Just because theres going to be better hardware).
