The tech columnist, Walter Mossberg, at Wall Street Journal wrote an interesting article this week indicating that upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 was NOT clean (no surprise). There is no real upgrade, just a cold install and file re-copy. Mr. Mossberg did point out that one "intention" was to promote the purchase of new computers. (I'd post a link here except WSJ is a pay site) WSJ Online allows readers to post comments to stories. The comments posted to this article were evenly split between "convert to linux," "keep Windows XP," and "convert to Apple." Even those nominally committed to Microsoft were none too complimentary of the Redmond bunch. Pity Microsoft sales and earnings fell off so sharply this past quarter.
