Windows 7 will click with PC users frustrated by Vista
Windows 7 is the latest in a growing number of elite products put out by Microsoft in recent years, and every user of a previous version of Windows should make the upgrade.
Oddly, most of the company's recent triumphs are hardware, namely the Xbox 360 video game console and Zune HD media player. But the Windows 7 operating system coming out Thursday is a true renaissance for Microsoft's core software platform after the botched and soon-to-be-forgotten Windows Vista.
Vista was never as terrible as critics claimed. The underlying code in that software was a dramatic change from Windows XP, a transition that led to all sorts of growing pains for Vista.
