As I said, it is one of the real differences between XP & Vista. Get
over it dan-o, Vista is much better than XP and Windows 7 is not Vista SP3.
Live with it chum!

No, you said Windows7 was built on Vista's then new technology.

Which wasn't new technology.

A 'difference' is not new technology. That's all I was saying. Many
believe Windows7 is Vista SP3, just as Vista was the second coming of ME.

Live with it.

Now, I'm done with you in this thread. Off you go.........chum.

Actually if you read the "white paper" you'll see that it really is a
"new technology implementation".[color=blue]

Vista vs Windows 7 - upgrade or SP3? Re: Refund from MicroSoft? Re:Vista 7 upgrade?

You, guys, screwed up with your ad hominem a very interesting discussion
about difference between Vista SP2 and Windows 7, and whether the costly
upgrade (vs free SP3) is justified.
