    No it's amazing! i've even had sex with it.

    In one sentence, Windows 7 is everything Vista should have been.

    Windows 7 is excellent.

    Mind you I don't remember Vista being full of bugs. Could you give me details of them?

    I seem to remember getting Vista and it working fine without any issues. Far better than the XP release anyway.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Yes, it's good - very good; yes, Vista was rubbish; Service Packs will iron out any major bugs - which are few and far between thus far, IME ;).
