Reaction

The topic “Microsoft Finalizes Windows 7” is becoming more and more popular recently. This is a good thing for the customers. The same as Tami Reller, the Windows unit's chief financial officer, said "It feels great to be here on time,", Windows 7 will be better than Windows Vista. As a matter of fact, Windows Vista has a lot of problems, so many people are bothered. For one thing, the compatibility is not good enough in Windows Vista system; a lot of games cannot be played in this system. For another, Windows Vista consumes too much resource. For example, when you power on Windows Vista that would consume 30% of your resource. Last but not least, Windows Vista's running speed is so slow. Microsoft will bring out Windows 7 on October 22; that is an exciting thing for us. I think that will be better than Windows Vista. Microsoft company spends a lot of time to develop this system, and also uses much time to prepare for that. So I believe that will be better.
