Why is it Windows 7 ! why not Window 8 or 9 ( 9 would be best as it released in 2009)

@MetalheadGautham: Your eyes are fine. Its a KDE rip off!

Does the windows 7 taskbar still have an option to turn off transparency and go black ?
I think transparency is wasted on taskbar.
I turned my own plasma panel back to black in KDE.

lol. what a review.

^^yes. Vista drivers work with windows 7. Been using win7 beta since it's launch and no issues at all. Perfect OS

I couldn't manage to run my Frontech Werbcam with Win7.

with the new catalyst and yet-beta geforce drivers, gaming in WIn7 beats Vista in every sphere.

for ATI, the new driver is doing wonders in win7 gaming but that nvidia beta driver is resulting in lower frame rate than that in vista.

hmmm Windows 7 looks like worth a try but sadly I'm stuck on Dial-up.

The only plus point other than cool UI is that no more drivers installation. That save a lot of time and unnecessary restarts. But the downside is that hardly any game plays on this OS. This is a big issue and MS needs to look into it.

Offcourse the games will soon start supporting Windows 7.

I am using The Release 7068 Now and Has ALso Used Its First Beta For 4 Months Have Not Seen Any Issue ! Not Even With Game !
It also Support Dual Graphics Card Of Different Company So You Can Plug One Big Ati and One Small Nvidia And Have Both Gaming With PHysx

Liked the RC , it installed all the drivers by itself, for my NIC installed XP drivers in compatibility mode, works fine. UI is good, less memory usage.

The name is actually a misnomer. It is actually Windows Build 6.1
Vista being 6 and XP being 5.1. But the name 7 was used during development, and it stuck.

Plus 7 seems to be a lucky number.
