I got the windows update notification today that it was available for download, but I'm not sure to get it yet or not. I haven't gotten any notification yet. Perhaps that's just an update for the Canadian version of Windows Vista. ;);) Ekidokai 06-05-2009, 09:45 AM I'm still on windows 98 Haffy 06-05-2009, 10:49 AM I just read an announcement that they are going to release Window's 7 on October 22nd of this year. Heck I don't even use Vista yet... :D I'm still am XP guy and love things the way they are right for now. :) WhereRWe? 06-05-2009, 11:16 AM Starzz - for the record - I have installed Vista SP2, but don't see any difference. I've always felt that it was best to install service packs, though. :D:D hide_from_the_kids 06-05-2009, 12:34 PM I run vista and have no problems and i installed sp2 with no problems Starzz 06-05-2009, 08:21 PM How long does it take to download & install? :) hide_from_the_kids 06-06-2009, 02:03 AM i don't think it took long i have it set up to do things like that when i go to bed when i wake up its done WhereRWe? 06-06-2009, 05:56 AM How long does it take to download & install? :) With a DSL connection, took me about 15 minutes. Mainiac1957 06-06-2009, 07:09 AM Since I got my new laptop last fall which has Vista I have had no bad experiences. Whatever fears I had were soon put to rest. Vista security issues haven't been a problem at all. For me anyway. As long as it does what it's been doing I'm happy. Starzz 06-06-2009, 07:59 AM I'll download & install it on my next day off, which is Wednesday. :) I heard alot of bad things about Vista before I got it, but its been working fine for me. benandtina 06-08-2009, 10:49 AM I just read an announcement that they are going to release Window's 7 on October 22nd of this year.

The trial will work until March of next year, at which point it will begin to shut down every 2 hours until the trial expires in June. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/download.aspx Starzz 06-10-2009, 08:05 AM I just installed it, but don't notice anything different. From the time I started the download until I got it installed, it took about 45 minutes. WhereRWe? 06-10-2009, 08:33 AM I just installed it, but don't notice anything different. Most service packs don't have anything you'd notice. Mainly just technical updates and bug fixes. :D:D |
