Was Vista better than XP? Is Windows 7 better than Vista? Am I right in
that Windows 7 came out to be Vista with the bugs worked out? And was
Microsoft already working on Windows 8 when 7 came out? One thing I would
like to see, if Microsoft insists on continually coming out with a new OS
time and time again, is that they quit rushing them to market before the
bugs are worked out, and give us a solid stable product that has thoroughly
been tested and proven to be stable and reliable, rather than a junky
troublesome buggy product. I know the task would be massive, and I know it
would take an enormous amount of time and effort, but it would sure do a lot
to regain the credibility they once had, and it would also be more readily
received by the customers.

Hi Charles and all,
If you want to make that argument consider this. When Windows Vista
came out Windows XP was already six years old, and it introduced a lot
of new graphics technology that wasn't possible on the hardware specs
in 2001. Both Windows 7 and Windows 8 use the exact same hardware
requirements as Windows Vista, and actually run better on the same
hardware specs. So your argument of having to replace your hardware
every time Microsoft upgrades doesn't hold water. I really urge you
guys to research your facts before making baseless arguments like this
because Microsoft does not change system requirements every two years
or for every Windows upgrade like you suggest.
Cheers!

the

Two
years later, another one that is more demanding. Two years later,
another

I
have another obsolete computer. I need to buy another one to handle the
new
technology. This! is! crap!
