I do indeed
 Running it in VirtualBox at the moment, just to have a little play. It seems much faster, so should be a good release if this is what the beta looks like already. Like people have said so many times before (but worth repeating, as it's true IMO), it's what Vista should have been . |

Still trying Vista within VMWare!
 May wait a while before using it within a Virtual environment. Not sure what the specs are for running it? |

The specs for Windows 7 about the same as Vista : 1Ghz CPU, 512MB Ram, 64MB graphics.

Does anyone else get bored of all the Windows bashing???
I installed W7 and its pretty much Vista, will buy it when the 1st service pack is released. I read that the operating requirements for Linux are a Rocket Scientist or a bin?

 No. I have Win7 Beta installed in VirtualBox. The host computer is a 2.2 Athlon (ide HDD). I've given the virtual Windoze a whole gig of RAM... it would definitely need more. More processor oomph, more RAM. A faster disk as well. |
