it's an easy to understand piece about the advantages of win7 vs winxp, as perceived by the average (definitly not HN-reading) user.

that, for me, reads like the ads on TV selling drugs.

please ask your doctor / sysadmin which OS to use, not that guy on TV / tech column. or else we will make fun of you.

sorry for ranting so much, but it drives me crazy. my girlfriend actually was asking about windows7, how much she needs it and how much better everything is going to be.

of course i will encourage every normal person i know to install windows7 (just to get rid of IE6 within the next years, hopefully).
