mmm... i see some screenshots of win7 and i see it like vista, maybe we better wait for the vista SP2 that boost vista and bury XP on the grave. the only attractive thing on win7 it`s the directx11....

I highly doubt DX11 is going to be 7 exclusive? I believe it Vista will be updatable to DX11...

Honestly i really don't know about 7; I'm very happy with Vista in general, but it has some unreasonable long HDD activity at times (especially on boot, while everything is loaded it still keeps doing stuff on the HDD, even though Superfetch is disabled) and basically always does something on the HDD (might be the indexer in part, but even with it disabled always does something on HDD) while XP really only worked on the HDD when you wanted it to.
Also, I don't know how, but somehow Apple manages to squeeze up to 6 hours running time out of a lpatop (Mac OS) that under vista only runs around 3 hours. Some serious improvements in the background utilization of the CPU should be made here, kinda allow the CPU to really go into sleep-mode while idleing and not process some pointless shit consuming power... Talking about pointlessly consuming power,back to the HDD again, which really should only be used when accesing a file and not basically do something all the time...

DX11 is a W7 exclusive i do believe.

Dx11 is for vista too, so not only for win7

i'm pretty sure that dx11 is only for win7, i think you might have gotten that confused with the ability of dx10 gfx cards to run dx11 without needing a new card.

According to MS directx 11 will run on every DX10 hardware so it isn't DX11 that will make me go to 7, just as it wasn't DX10 that made me jump to Vista.

from what i've read, and educated guesses, DX10 hardware can run DX11, however there will be performance problems/missing features. For example, ATI cards have tesselation (and have had for a while) whilst Nvidia would have to emulate it through their CUDA system.

Its still better than zero support, but we gotta be careful about the enthusiasm there.

Man u peeps are getting ripped off!!!!

They have Windows VXP7 on torrent as of yesterday!!!!

U can set your settings XP, Vista, OR windows 7 on how your interact with the o/s. It really is the best thing Microsoft has ever done!!!!

But before all of you that gets mads that you don't have Windows VXP7 also.

Microsoft, has let them be on over the whole matter.

Here is the >>>LINK<<<<

If you peeps would of been reading your news paper groups you would of known!

frankie827 · Dec 2, 2008

so this thread kinda just died...so im gonna give it some life again

so what do you all think about WARP? did you guys see the benchmarks on crysis? i thought they were pretty impressive considering it was only the cpu doing the work

johnspack · Dec 3, 2008

alpha 6801 is already such a huge improvement! uac slider bar, daaam! win7 64 will be my next os. Main reason why I'll be using xp64 until this comes out.

blueskynis · Dec 3, 2008

Can you share some screen shots of those improvements, please?

johnspack · Dec 5, 2008

blueskynis, uac slider control:

Media player 12!:

blueskynis · Dec 5, 2008

Ahh, johnspack, thanks and keep them coming!

Why are you using classic theme? Are you running in virtual machine?

johnspack · Dec 5, 2008

I hate bloat theme, I always use classic, I like my interface fast.

Deleted member 38767 · Dec 5, 2008

I tried the thing on a virtual machine and it looks and feels great. It installs for less then 20 min and takes only 4GB of disk space. :rockout:

Next I'll try the new build on my home PC to see how it will run on proper hardware.

Triprift · Dec 5, 2008

Is wmp 12 only for windows 7 or can it be dl for Vista or Xp not that i use it just curious?

<<Onafets>> · Dec 5, 2008

from what i heard, 7 is designed for touch screen interfaces and voice recognition. it would be somewhat handy to say "pause playback" and have it do so. (as opposed to current voice recognition, which would attempt to fire me into the sun for daring to have a foreign accent)
