Will you upgrade to Windows 7

I've heard this question alot lately. Windows 7 is due to ship in October 2009. I have pre-ordered a copy for the office machine. I participated in the beta trials and sent 1000's of bug reports and suggestions to Microsoft. The RTM or release version appears to be stable however, there are still compatibility issues with hardware and older software.

When compatibility is mentioned however, everyone replies well there will be an XP Mode for older software... Well there is and assuming it works it would be great if it were offered to the general public.

What do you mean you say?

Well XP Mode is only available to users who purchase Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate. Do you know of any computer manufacturer that ships a computer with anything but a stripped down OEM version of Windows??

Are you going to buy all new software??? or upgrade to a 300$ version of Windows....

You tell me.....
