Are you upgrading to Windows 7 when it is released or will you wait for Windows 8 ?


It gets the lock!

i'm running vista 64 on my mac right now, and it's doing pretty well for games, so i'll probably wait til they iron out the bugs in it (sp1) and then upgrade. I might wait til WIN X, though.

seriously, besides Fallout 3, i have yet to have any problems gaming with Vista. I mean, besides gaming, whats windows good for... so no hurry here.

What video card do you have on your mac? Do you dual boot, or run straight windows?

Made the move to Ubuntu, not missing Windows at all. For me the Vista nightmare is over, and I have no intention of reliving it with Windows 7.

french toast here.

Sticks or actual toast? Thin or thick? I put sugar and syrup on mine..

like sandwich bread, not texas toast. i put syrup and powdered sugar too.

for the recipe, i use:

milk, egg, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, pinch of salt, and vanilla extract.

the salt is a necessity.

i was thinking about putting in a second and running crossfire, but i was going to way for a real 4870 efi card. i wouldn't mind two.

i run OSX for production, and then Vista 64 for fun.

Nice. Do you do any gaming on it much. I know macs aren't great for games.

It depends on how it looks at release. If it's the same bloated, unsupported, drm invasion tool that Vista was, then I'll just stick with XP &/or Linux. If it looks at least halfway acceptable I'll be glad for the upgrade.
