Not to come-off sounding like an h8'er, but..
*cough*
..512MB of memory is not enough to run an operating system ?
What kinda crap did they bloat it with this time?

So, they made a version of Firefox, but called it InternetExplorer 7.
Many of the "new features" have been available for Firefox, as an extension, for a long time, and many of us have been using them, for a long time.
Old "features" such as currency converters and zoom.

Again, not to hate, but from what I've seen, it's still not enough!

I'll just wait till I truly NEED to update, and when that time does arrive it will not be to one of M$'s bloated OSes.
