A naked Operating system does not mean much to them. If there will be a lot of new applications developed for W7, they will move eventually. But that will take time. In addition, those IT people are lazy. Why should they work hard for a change as long as the old stuff still works. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/survey-6-in-10-companies-to-skip-windows-7#post-99298 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 06:24:57 +0000 gueb 99298@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Posted for contrast. :)<br /> <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=1181">http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=1181</a> </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/survey-6-in-10-companies-to-skip-windows-7#post-99272 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 23:56:52 +0000 raphoenix 99272@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>I run XP Pro and had Win 7 Beta in Dual Boot Configuration on this machine for awhile.<br /> ---<br /> The only item I disliked about Win 7 Beta was could not run in True Classic Mode.<br /> ---<br /> Everything worked OK in 7 Beta and better in 7 RC1 I assume.<br /> ---<br /> The Boot Manager is going to be a "Bear" for the Newbies to understand.<br /> ---<br /> Edit: Books for Win 7 RTM will be published in October from my readings.<br /> ---<br /> Regards,<br /> Rick P. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/survey-6-in-10-companies-to-skip-windows-7#post-99268 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 23:45:48 +0000 madmacs 99268@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>7 is going to be the breakthrough here in Germany, there has been so many different companies swearing they´ll change from 2000, XP as soon as 7 arrives. I´ve just had to tell my college where I´m learning networking that I need Server 2008 (Along with Unix) because 2003 is dead!!!
