CNET’s Eval Of Windows 7

I was reading through Cnet news and came across this article and wanted to see how there ratings compare to my testing.  Here it is, the following link is to the page.  There is a video to watch as well.  http://reviews.cnet.com/windows/microsoft-windows-7-professional/4505-3672_7-33704140.html?&subj=re&tag=newsLeadStoriesArea.1

The good: Strong design and Microsoft don’t always go together, but they do in Windows 7. Users might take a while to get used to the new taskbar and Aero Peek, but they’re a pleasure to use.

The bad: Performance is still hit-or-miss in Windows 7. At the ripe age of seven, Windows XP still performs better in some categories.

The bottom line: Windows 7 is more than what Vista should have been, it’s where Microsoft needs to go and they went there. How much damage did Vista do and is Windows 7 enough for people to finally abandon Windows XP are questions that nobody has the answers to right now.
