Hi Jasond19
I'm sure many others wi;; contribute to this thread.

But from my part, having recently got a win 7 64bit computer I am finding advantages already.

But I would think a visit to the sister site would give you more insight than I can.

There you will guage the full advantages.

I have not regretted the step th 7.

First be sure that you can

It would be my bottom line, if money is not unlimited and Vista is working well and you are happy wait for 8. It will be here before you know it.

If you have your heart set on Seven, read this first.

In my opinion its not worth the $120.00 for a few new features; wait for 8. It should be different than anything we have now.

I was a real Vista fan. But now I have only 1 Vista left (and 5 Windows7). Windows7 is easier to operate and it is very stable. In terms of function there is not a big difference (if you discard the eye candy things).

There are even a few things I was missing at first (e.g. the automatic dock on top and the sidebar). But then I got Rocket Dock and tweaked the Vista sidebar in. And the Quick Launch I replaced with a taskbar which turned out to be a lot better and more flexible (allows subfolders). So at the end I became a Windows7 fan.

If you do a lot of video work, you would also appreciate the much better list of Codecs supported by Win7.
