Windows 7 is a LOT better than Vista. I compare this to when Windows ME came out, it was a pile and then XP came out and it was like 100% better. Even for a BETA Windows 7 is great. Also, there's not much OSX copying, it's just fanboys getting upset that it kinda looks like it even though its a lot different.

I personally like Windows 7 and this is coming from a die hard Mac fanboy. It is much better than Vista and it takes a lot less computer power to drive it. I'm running it on an older Compaq Evo W6000 Workstation, Dual Xeons at 2.4GHz and 512MB RAM, the processor is great but for it to be running great on only 512MB of RAM says something.

However I am still partial to my Macs  :yes:

Why would disable Aero in W7? It runs much better than Vista :huh:
Its disabled due to my 128 SiS 760 Chipset/Mirage. I must say, if you want Aero and intense graphics, go with ATI or Nvida, SiS sucks... badly :hmm:
