Advantages: More user friendly and attractive than XP

Disadvantages: Resource hungry, windows 7 is better in every way

I have used both XP, Vista and Windows 7. XP was a fairly good operating system, and at present is the standard for most homes and buisnesses.

Vista is a resource hungry operating system, and there are no 2 ways about it. Doing nothing pushes RAM usage to about 30% or 40%, and CPU usage is never below 5%. Vista is a pretty, easy to use and reliable-ish system, but it is in no way efficient.

There are many usefull features which make it better than XP, but there are countless annying ones aswell, such as the security warnings. I realise they have thier place and purpose, but mostly they are irritating.

With the introduction of windows 7, you would be mad to buy this operating system. Windows 7 is basicaly Vista, but efficient, faster, more reliable, and widely appreciated to be the next standard operating system.

I recommend windows 7, not this.

Summary: Get Windows 7, skip Vista
