The Microsoft's new operating system will be officialy released in 22th Oct. 09 as i remember reading in a news site. However, the RTM version (Initials for Release to Mass i suppose) is out already. I got my hands on a microsoft's official build in order to upgrade my laptop's vista. It gives me 30 days to use and then i'll have to register/buy or i'll revert to Vista. I expected my system to be very very fast right after the upgrade but ok - might be slightly faster - but not THAT fast. First look reminds me of Vista GUI - but certainly they introduced better layout and more functions. The icons on the first run were huge and my Vista quick launch bar disappeared. I managed to get my settings back (even the quick launch bar) after a few minutes of playing around. Well... Another Microsoft operating system. Simple and easy to use for the ... simple minded people. It was boring after the 10th minute. I am editing this post on my Linux since that's the operating system that suits my likes - actualy - that gives me the advantage of Tweaking it to my likes. Unfortunately still i can't push it towards my end clients because people don't dare to explore / learn. To be honest i was 'in touch' , a very light touch with linux since 1997 or 1998 - when i bought my first linux distribution (suse). Took me 6 hours to get the X graphics server to run (to start the 'windows'). Lovely ages then :)
Oh, and speaking of Operating systems... If you are completely unable to use your mind, don't worry ! There are still Apple MAC's in Market ! They do 'everything' with one mouse button ! Second button is completely unnecessary... people can't use both fingers at the same time anyway :p
