798896 2009-08-09 03:21:00 Already downloaded a leaked version from Bittorrent couple of days ago. Verified against official MD5 as the correct ISO.

Unfortunately Comodo causes random 0x0000124 BSOD so have to run AVG for now

The performance is not much faster than Vista SP2, but they did some tweaks to Aero to make it appear faster. XP still beats both of them.

I still don't like the taskbar, don't need no 30-day trial to tell me that.

Probably I will buy Vista instead because at least that has a sensible design. And after that, well...

798897 2009-08-09 05:46:00 Really? I love the taskbar, and I installed a clean Vista and Win7 side-by-side on 3 different machines over the last month, Win7 was snappier, boot faster, used less RAM / CPU while idling and generally outperformed Vista in every way possible :D Chilling_Silence (9)
