its definatly going to tie up less resources, and the components are definatly 
accessible.
I had the chance to beta test it myself, and while it resembles Vista in some 
ways, it definatly is much more stable.
However I just downloaded the new service pack 2 from Vista, and what a hell of 
improovement.

  From what I have read and from hwat i have heard from JFW users, Windos 7 
will be a good option for us.

    Phil,
        Thank you so much for those articles. Although, I'm not outside the 
USA, I like to keep up with these developments. I can't wait to see if Windows 
7 will redeem Vista the way X.P. redeemed M.E. 
        Windows Vista, aka "mojave" "longhorn" et al., has a long and checkered 
past and I have been lucky enough to be able to wait it out and jump the gulf 
from X.P. directly to 7. I hope the wait hasn't been needless; if 7 bites the 
dust, I may have to just go back to Amiga Workbench and Fred Fish. (Just 
kidding, but I may go Linux!)
        -Andy

      Worth a read:

      And it looks like Microsoft are having a bit of a spat with European 
regulators which could result in us not being able to purchase a Windows 
upgrade or, we could end up with a version of Windows in Europe that ships 
without Internet Explorer.  If you live in Europe then, you will want to read 
this one:

      Hmm, I wonder how much the OEM version will cost?
