Thinking of going with that on my new computer. Is it faster? |
Turns out it is only 5 language support. Gotta wait for wave 2. |

Well, I read that if you buy a computer with Vista after July 7th (not sure of the exact day in July), you get a free upgrade to Windows 7 when the time comes.
I think they've figured out that people are so afraid of Vista that they're planning to wait buying a new computer until Windows 7 comes. |

They've done this with other Window's releases as well. I would wait and see final reviews on Window's 7 before buying a computer either way, if I wanted Windows. I don't really ever see myself using Windows again for personal use. Mac OS X 10.6 should be pretty awesome compared to Windows 7. I think Microsoft lost it's way pretty fast with out Gates. Gates is too busy with charity work to worry about how Balmer messed up the company. |

I'd love to buy a MAC, but the simple fact is that it's useless with 90% of Korean websites. Especially banking and purchasing.
I don't consider a separate purchase of XP to dual-boot it on the MAC an option. That negates the entire reason for wanting to switch from Microsoft products in the first place. |

| Macintoshes do look neat. Keep in mind that Macs are BSD-based, and you can run WINE on them. In other words, their underlying core is based on *nix, so they can, in general, run Unix/Linux programs, such as WINE. Thus you can run Internet Explorer 7, and possibly ActiveX on a Mac. |

| It seems that Punkbuster does not account that some people are using Windows 7. When I try playing a game that uses it, it kicks me out reporting errors of "Unknown API" or "Unknown Windows version". It's unfortunate, because other than this, Windows 7 is running rather well on my computer. |
