Microsoft Vista Dying, Windows 7 coming June 3rd 2009

Microsoft Vista Dying, Windows 7 coming June 3rd 2009

By: Daniel Chubb | September 16, 2008 | 5 Comments

Before we tell you about the latest news we have to say Microsoft Vista is pretty rubbish, maybe you have to get used to it who knows but there is something about it that just does not cut it.

Bill Gates mentioned not so long ago about Windows 7 and that it could be coming sometime next year, well the latest news has it that it will be available June 23rd 2009, finally at last this means that Microsoft Vista is dying.

This date is fantastic because many though that it was going to be released sometime in 2010, Vista as we all know only had a three-year lifespan so it was expected to see a successor.

    Uh, yeah. I am so excited about $NEXT_VERSION of Windows. It will go beyond just solving all of the problems with $CURRENT_VERSION, it will be an entirely new paradigm. Forget about security problems, those are all fixed in $NEXT_VERSION. And they’re finally ridding themselves of $ANCIENT_LEGACY_STUFF. Also, there’ll be $DATABASE_FILESYSTEM. It’ll be awesome!

    man i would like to say that me and all my friends are now using linux as windows is not stable and cannot operate in a stable fashion. We used to say that about linux but the situation is now reversed and that is a shame but is the truth.

    I use linux mint and it is the best thing ever. I even have gone back to asembly cause it is not the least bit hard under linux. Its pure simple and the memory management under linux is pure genius. Its simple not like the allocated segmented crap under windows is not simple. Windows segmentation is the most biggest pile of doggy do in the world.

    @matkat: Did you write this post in 1991 and it took 17 years to reach us or were you trying to use a stone-age 16 bit compiler on modern windows?

    Windows 3.11 for Workgroups ran in protected mode (linear, non-segmented memory adresses), and so have Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7, of course.

    Even DOS applications had linear memory using popular extenders such as DOS4GW.

    Further, the segment:offset scheme is something we have Intel to blame for.

    Well, probably you were just making a troll post :)

    I am on my second laptop that uses Vista Home Premium and I have to say it is the biggest load of absolute crap on the planet. It is nowhere near as good as XP, 2000 or even 98! It continually freezes, drops wi fi and is incredibly slow compared to XP, even with 3Gb of RAM. Bill Gates should offer everyone who has this crap system a free “downgrade” to XP as this is a much more stable system than vista. Seeing as that is not going to happen I shall scrap vista and use Linux. At least I won’t be screwed by microsoft again!

    I have to disagree with others concerning Vista. My Vista Home Premium running on a Dell I1521 operates wonderfully. It is many times better than the XP Sp2 that is running on my Dell I5150. The fact that the the 1521 has dual core processor and 2Gig of RAM versus the Pentium 4 with 256Meg of RAM on the 5150 is part of the difference. What kind of problems have users been having with Vista? Mine works great. Why the rush to Windows 7????
