At least the version of the package that is supposedly to be bundled for release this coming October 22, 2009, the set date for the release of the new and improved Windows 7 Operating System. The new operating system is Microsoft’s next gamble to cope with losses suffered from the failure of Vista to capture the market once held by XP. The many flavors and versions of the Vista Operating system confused a lot and the pervasive UAC system that was designed to remind you (kinda’ too much I’d say!) that ou have to have admin access or privileges to do certain things on the computer you own and bought. This problem plus more security issues resulted in many people opting to downgrade their Vista installs and revert them back to XP which was stable and quite enough for those who overcame the initial curiosity of what the fuss was all about.
The release of the Win 7 Operating system was very much streamlined into three distinct versions, the Home, Business and Ultimate versions, but the enthusiasm of the company with it’s upcoming release may have to played down a bit for economic indicators and spot surveys show that not many are going to be willing to shell out money for a new operating system when the old one works. Even with them announcing the ultimate demise of the XP family of operating systems, people are still quite unreceptive of the move to get Vista when it was released, more so for Win7.
