Re: Microsoft to end support for Windows 7 in 2015
To be fair MS did technically end support for XP in 2009. I'll admit while I don't like any of the business practices employed by such companies I find MS's insistence on completely redesigning the UI with every new version incredibly irritating.
I have a mid 2009 Mac Book Pro and while I love it for general tasks Mac OS simply doesn't run enough games, or even a decent mud client. I also don't like the pricetag, the fact that even desktop macs tend to use laptop components to cut down on size as well as heat and power which also has a drop in performance, and the fact that they're becoming increasingly difficult to upgrade. I just can't be bothered with all the little hassles that can come with Linux. When my current systems, aforementioned MacBook pro and a self build win 7 ivybridge I7, wear out I'll have to seriously reassess the situation. Not least among my concerns is backward compatibility, something Windows has often had serio us problems with especially in regard to games.
