sedrasmith responded to a discussion called windows 7 latest edition in computer. 2 months agoI have seen windows 7 on my friend's pc and in my opinion it is much much better than vista.It boots up quite fast and shuts down quickly without taking too much time.Also its hardware requirements are less than vista.nice taskbar and some new aero features.but i still love xp on my pc as i m used to it very well.
