smoothvibes · 10-08-08, 01:17 AM

yes i can understand that but it wud be great if you can play it on linux coz it will improve your gamind xprince as linux will not eat much of your graphic cards memory and will not put extra load too

gurusam · 10-08-08, 11:46 AM

Would Love to hear about this as i am playing it too...

Window7 is cool, you found what you want to do. It is more easier to do a job. But windows matter on the user.

thats_me · 10-08-08, 10:13 PM

I know microsoft products are always user friendly and easy to use and customizable but I hope Windows 7 is not a memory hog like Vista.

I agree microsoft products are user friendly and easier to use. However if you have used Linux, you would change your mind in mentioning your third point.... *Customizable*.

NOTE : Its possible to play some of the latest games in Linux ... you need Wine for that .. Have never used it so dunno about its effectiveness ....

Just got fifa 09 dvd ... yet to install

......no time ..... Just got the xbox 360 controller for windows specially for fifa 09 !.....

@j4k

MS office 2007 needs getting used to ... but once when you get used to it ...There s no going back .... You can create superb presentations,docs etc in a very short time .....Office groove feature is Mondo coolio !

I am surprised most of u guys have nt already seen the Windows 7 promo video ...it was released nearly 2 months ago ....

Well anyways Windows 7 also supports touch screen interface .....for enabled devices .ofcourse

@thats me

Windows 7 is no less a memory hog than Vista .... It should be thought of as an advanced version of Vista ....Neither a back track to XP nor a Complete break away from all previous O.S es

from where you got this information that windows products are customizable i have used windows too and never found any microsoft product which we can call as customizable and which we can config fully and properly
mate you may like to use linux, try it once

Brandbla8 · 10-10-08, 12:43 AM

It looks cool but I hope it does not have the problems that the others have had when first released.

10-10-08, 08:22 PM

Microsoft said during the conference that it was specifically working on Windows 7 to make sure that it is also not dogged by many errors as in Vista ..

stick0 · 10-11-08, 04:04 PM

Looks great but i'm sure there will be flaws like Vista.

thats_me · 10-12-08, 07:38 PM

Well Since most games (if not all of them) are DirectX based the newer games Which will support pixel shader 4 and above will definitely face problems in linux. LINUX IS GREAT BUT NOT FOR GAMING AND HIGH END MULTIMEDIA PURPOSES I HAVE FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE.

mannuforall · 10-21-08, 09:31 AM
