suggestions on upgrading to a new pc
"David J Taylor" wrote in message om... "Larry Thong" wrote in message m... [] Me be an MSDN subscriber too for many years as well. What slight? Maybe I forgot a smiley? Maybe you did. And no, I don't like Vista. I agree Win 7 is better than Vista, but there are way too many security holes in Win 7 to make it an OS for daily use, at least till one gets in there and reworks the registry and a few other points of interest. I'm sad to say that XP will be kicking Win 7's ass in the security department for a while. We will see once the masses get their hands on it, but out of the box I would say that an out-of-the-box Windows-7 was actually more secure than an out-of-the-box XP, and certainly quite certainly for daily use (behind the typical home router). I accept your requirements may differ. Cheers, David The editing went a little wrong there! We will see once the masses get their hands on it, but I would say that an out-of-the-box Windows-7 was actually more secure than an out-of-the-box XP, and certainly quite adequate for daily use (behind the typical home router).
